Equipment Reconditioning
We can recondition/rebuild virtually any piece of equipment from our variety of product lines, as we maintain a massive library of all the original OEM drawings originally used to produce that piece of equipment. In a typical reconditioning, the frame and all supporting parts will be completely disassembled, cleaned, and inspected. This is inclusive of all frame and operating components. Each part and/or subassembly is reviewed, and a determination is made on its condition.
Rebuilt, Upgraded, and Ready to Perform
Following this, all parts and sub-assemblies are either reconditioned or replaced as necessary. Individual parts are then routed to the appropriate departments for rework and/or replacement and then eventually primed, painted, and reassembled. Prior to shipment, all operating systems of the piece of equipment will be tested. Upgrades/retrofits (mechanical, electrical, pneumatic, and safety-based) can be included as part of this process also.

New and Repaired Sander
Kimwood Machinery is pleased to continue our new & reconditioned Kimwood Sander Roll Program, which, with substantial company resizing and efficiencies, KMI will significantly increase our abilities to lower the sale price of your Kimwood Rolls.
The Smart Way to Buy Sander Rolls
Our sander roll program consists of two key elements that provide substantial benefits to our customers.
-
One element is a recent extensive price restructuring on all sander rolls. We are pleased to offer this new, competitive pricing to our customers without sacrificing any of the legendary quality in the manufacture and reconditioning of rolls. As the OEM of your sander, we are very concerned about the quality of the work we do. For example, our balance requirements exceed those of any other manufacturer producing sander rolls. In addition, we offer a warranty of 180 days on new rolls and 120 days on reconditioned rolls.
-
The second advantage to the sander rolls will mean big savings to our customers. Freight costs have been an issue for some of our customers in the past. Kimwood Machinery is offering free freight (delivery only) on new & reconditioned rolls. This is a great deal for our customers, and we encourage you to take advantage of this special offer.
Performance You Can Count On
With all the advantages listed above, we firmly believe that Kimwood Machinery should be your first choice as a supplier of new and reconditioned rolls. We look forward to hearing from you with any questions or requests you might have.
