Machine Base Subsidence

Re-levelling for Machine, Press & Base Subsidence Repair

Re-level and re-support press, CNC and machine bases that have settled under vibration and dynamic load.

Free Quote How it works

What we deliver

Laser-monitored lifts to ±1mm to bring the base back into manufacturer tolerance.
Resin penetrates and fills voids caused by vibration-induced sub-base degradation.
Machine recommissioned the same shift in most cases, no full strip-out.
Stops the vibration creep that causes repeat misalignment and tooling wear.

Why this method works

Proven across hundreds of industrial sites.

Work around live plant

Inject under operating racking, conveyors and machinery without dismantling or moving stock.

Millimetre tolerances

Laser-monitored lifts to ±1mm where MHE flatness (FM1/FM2) and VNA tolerances demand it.

Heavy-load rated resin

Structural polyurethane handles forklift, reach-truck and HGV loading, no settlement creep.

Minimum downtime

Operations resume the same shift in most cases. No demolition, no curing wait, no dust extraction.
