Compressor overhaul and spare parts supply

Reciprocating, centrifugal and lobe compressors: on-site or in-house maintenance, certified spare parts and wear parts.

F&B technicians working on a compressor

Do you need to overhaul a reciprocating or centrifugal compressor?

A compressor at a standstill stops the whole line downstream: that is why we organise the job quickly, on site or in our Terni workshop, under ISO 9001 procedures and with the same team from survey to final testing.

We supply spare parts and wear parts for reciprocating, centrifugal and lobe compressors of any make, including machines no longer in production: from the drawing, from a sample or from a survey of the worn part.

We complete the job with laser alignment of the compressor and vibration monitoring, so the machine goes back into service with verified parameters.

Reciprocating compressors

On reciprocating compressors we work on every wearing component, from the cylinder to the crankshaft. Where time matters, repair by material deposition avoids waiting for a new part; where needed, we review the design to improve the machine’s performance.

Wear parts, made with special materials, coatings and heat treatments:

  • piston rings
  • rider bands
  • oil scraper rings
  • guide bushings
  • packing boxes

Spare parts:

  • cylinders
  • piston rods
  • rod guide supports
  • crossheads
  • main and connecting-rod bearings
  • crankshafts
  • cylinder heads
  • working valves
  • flywheels
  • pulleys
  • heat exchangers

Repairs and overhauls: to optimise operating costs we repair, where possible, by material deposition:

  • cylinders
  • piston rods
  • crossheads
  • main and connecting-rod bearings
  • crankshafts

We also overhaul:

  • liners
  • packing boxes
  • working valves
  • valve covers
  • cylinder heads
  • rod guide supports
  • flywheels
  • pulleys
  • heat exchangers
  • oil pumps
Centrifugal compressor being overhauled

Centrifugal compressors

On centrifugal compressors the priority is the bearing and seal system: we supply and repair bimetallic and trimetallic bearings, labyrinth and seal rings in house, with the anti-friction linings that are our speciality.

Wear parts:

  • bimetallic and trimetallic thrust and journal bearings
  • bearing covers
  • oil and air seal rings
  • labyrinth rings
  • gasket and bolt kits
  • couplings

Repairs:

  • bimetallic and trimetallic thrust and journal bearings
  • seal rings
  • labyrinth rings
  • volutes
  • piping and coupling flanges
  • overhaul of inlet guide vanes and oil pumps
Lobe compressor with timing gears

Lobe compressors

For lobe compressors we supply piston rings, bushings, bearings and gears and, where possible, we repair side plates and compressor casings instead of replacing them.

Procedures, materials and documentation

Compliant procedures

Our activities are carried out according to appropriate procedures, constantly updated and compliant with international technical standards, within our ISO 9001:2015 certified quality system.

Certified materials

Materials are sourced from leading Italian and international suppliers and come with certificates of chemical analysis and mechanical properties or of conformity, in addition to certificates for any additional heat treatments and non-destructive testing.

Technical documentation

All supplies are accompanied by accurate technical documentation and certificates of conformity. Maintenance work comes with maintenance reports, machine data sheets, dimensional reports, inspection sheets, testing and commissioning records.
