Is a damaged tie bar reducing the performance of your industrial machinery? At Canadian Feed Screws, we understand how vital the application of a tie bar can be, particularly when it comes to extrusion and injection molding. Though tie bars are built to last a lifetime, they are prone to wear and tear, which can lead to issues such as bending, cracking or other operation-related damages.
However, you don’t have to worry about broken tie bars as we have 50 years of experience in rebuilding them. We can build new bars for you down to your exact specifications, to replace old and damaged tie bars. Our specialized tie bar services are here to restore your equipment back to its peak performance.
What causes tie bars to break?
Corrosion is the most common reason attributed to the breakage of tie bars at a particular point on their surface. Other reasons could include things like inclusions, cracks, poor heat treatment as well as improper alloying. As for operational reasons, one of the two bars in an injection molding press or a die cast machine can break due to overloading beyond its capacity. That said, whatever the reason may be behind your tie bar breaking, we can fix it for you!
We can help you:
- Repair cracks and weld your tie bars as broken bars can compromise your equipment’s safety. Our expert technicians can weld fractures shut so your tie bars can regain their structural integrity.
- Resurface and straighten bent tie bars to prevent misalignment and disruption in machinery performance. We employ precision machining to ensure your tie bar is restored to its prime condition.
- Harden and heat treat your tie bar to increase its endurance and durability. We make sure we meet your specific application requirements for optimal performance.
- Repair damaged threads to restore clamping force to prevent further issues. We take your bar’s precise tolerance into account when re-machining its threads.
