Refurbishment

Throughout the repair process our guiding principle is to keep you the customer informed and in control. You are welcome to visit us at any time during the repair process to see the progress of your magnet.

Rotary Engineering has full machining capabilities, even for the largest magnets enabling us to dismantle magnets in a precise and cost effective way. We carry out all the refurbishment work here in our Sheffield plant where we have the capability to repair or refurbish any magnet from any manufacturer.

We can redesign the coil material if the original material is no longer available or uneconomical to use. This coil can be wound either from copper or Aluminium depending on the design of the magnet and its eventual application.

Our workshop includes:

  • Vacuum drying and heating facility (your magnet may only need a dry out and re-seal)
  • Full dismantling capabilities for either Copper or Aluminium coils
  • Machining, assembly and welding - in line with the repair service we offer
  • Full in house testing facilities
  • LOLER testing and certification for every magnet produced here at Rotary

Our procedure when a magnet is received for repair :

A visual inspection and electrical test are conducted and you are informed the results; recommendations are given. They often fit into one of three categories

  1. The magnet can be dried out and re-sealed
  2. The magnet is electrically OK but needs mechanical work
  3. The magnet needs stripping down for a full test report

When action is agreed, we produce a full quotation outlining the areas where work is required, the cost of this work and a delivery date. If there are different options available, we will give you the details. Should the magnet need stripping down, you may visit us and see your magnet in pieces to discuss the options for repair – it is your magnet and we want you to be confident in the service we are providing.

When you give us the go-ahead, we refurbish the magnet in line with the details agreed. Rotary Burnand will complete the work for the price stated in the quotation and deliver it to you on time. It will be fully tested before it is released from our works.

If you choose not to go-ahead with a repair, we return the magnet to you in with just the strip down costs and delivery to pay - this cost can often be offset if you decide to scrap the magnet.
