Machine Tool Services
Machine tool services from Exact Machine Service. Emergency breakdown repair, calibration, maintenance, and new and used machine sales.
What Are Machine Tool Services?
Machine tool services are the repair, inspection, calibration, and maintenance work that keeps production equipment running. The category takes in machine sales and control upgrades. Exact Machine Service performs this work at your facility. That runs from emergency breakdowns through scheduled maintenance, new machine sales, and control retrofits.
Manufacturing never stops, and neither does the equipment that carries it. Unplanned downtime hits your bottom line from the moment a machine goes quiet. Our technicians show up at your shop with specialized tools and field experience. They work the problem where the machine sits. Our machine tool services span emergency breakdown repair, inspection, and laser alignment. Preventative maintenance, new and used machine tools, and CNC upgrades round out the list. From vintage equipment through the latest CNC machines, our team works on what your shop actually runs. Tell us the make, the model, and what the machine is doing.

Who Repairs Machine Tools That Are Too Old for the Builder to Support?
Exact Machine Service works on equipment ranging from vintage machines through the latest CNC platforms. Our technicians carry professional diagnostic equipment and work the problem at your facility. Age alone does not take a machine out of scope. Give us the make and the model, and we can tell you what is workable.
Inspection, Calibration, and Laser Alignment
Manufacturing demands precision on every part, and precision traces back to machine accuracy. Components that fall outside specification damage customer relationships and put repeat business at risk.
Machine inspections:
we test the systems that affect your part quality standardsPrecision calibration:
measurement and adjustment against machine specificationsLaser alignment:
positioning checks using Renishaw laser systemsComplete documentation:
measurement reports covering the work performed
Quality control starts with machine accuracy, which is why the numbers get written down rather than remembered.
Preventative Maintenance Programs
Breakdowns tend to arrive at the worst moment. A major order is on the floor and the schedule is tight.
Maintenance schedule:
we work within your existing schedule or help coordinate service intervalsRoutine inspections:
catching potential problems before they turn into failuresComponent checks and adjustments:
verification and adjustment of key systemsLubrication services:
proper lubrication of critical components
New Machine Tools

CNC machining centers:
vertical and horizontal machines for precision operationsTurning centers:
from basic lathes through multi axis production machinesGrinding equipment:
surface, cylindrical, and centerless grindersProfessional installation:
complete setup and testing with every machine
Used Machine Tools
Used equipment widens the field when a new machine does not fit the budget or the lead time.
Condition assessment:
key systems are checked to give a clearer picture of machine statusReconditioning options:
rebuild and refurbishment available where appropriateDiverse inventory:
mills, lathes, grinders, and specialty equipmentValue pricing:
equipment priced to make sense for your operation
Should I Rebuild an Older Machine or Buy a New One?
That call depends on the machine, the work it runs, and what the control still supports. Exact Machine Service sells new and used machine tools and performs rebuilds and control retrofits. The recommendation is not tied to one answer. We look at the equipment and the application first.
CNC and Machine Tool Upgrades
Your existing machinery may still produce good parts. Outdated controls and thinning parts availability can still become a problem. Upgrading ahead of that keeps the decision on your terms.
Control retrofits:
modern CNC controls fitted to existing machinesSpindle rebuilds:
rebuild work aimed at cutting performance and vibrationAutomation additions:
robot loading systems and pallet changers
Rebuilding or upgrading is often the lower cost path compared with buying new. We can help you work out what makes financial sense for your operation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Machine Tool Services
Can a machine breakdown be fixed during the first visit?
Whenever possible, we work to resolve breakdowns during the initial visit. Technicians arrive with professional diagnostic equipment and troubleshoot at your facility. Some repairs need parts or a longer window. The assessment on site tells you which situation you are in.
What is checked during a machine tool inspection?
We test the systems that affect your part quality standards. Positioning is checked with Renishaw laser systems, and calibration measures the machine against its specifications. Measurement reports document the work performed, so the results support your quality records rather than someone's memory.
Does a used machine get inspected before it is sold?
Key systems are checked to give a clearer picture of overall machine status. Reconditioning, rebuild, and refurbishment options are available where appropriate. Anything specific to an individual unit comes from us in writing for that machine. General descriptions do not substitute.
Can an old CNC control be replaced without buying a new machine?
Often, yes. Control retrofits fit modern CNC controls to existing machines, and automation additions are available alongside them. Rebuilding or upgrading is frequently the lower cost path compared with new equipment. Much depends on the machine and the work it runs.
Where can a shop buy a new CNC machining center with installation included?
Exact Machine Service sells new machining centers, turning centers, and grinding equipment. Complete setup and testing come with every machine. Our team helps you select equipment that fits the work and the budget. Used machine tools are an option when a new machine does not fit either one.
