Mechanical fitting

Mechanical asset integrity & optimisation

Your critical industrial machinery demands more than simple repairs—it requires an intelligent, proactive approach to maintenance and system improvement. Line Engineering Solutions delivers advanced mechanical fitting services focused on maximising asset lifespan, driving operational efficiency, and eliminating the root cause of failure.

We move beyond reactive fixes to provide strategic solutions that ensure the sustained, high-performance operation of your plant's most vital systems.

Precision, quality, and strategic maintenance

Our mechanical fitting service is a broad and flexible solution, precisely tailored to the needs of Maintenance Managers and Site Managers across the UK’s critical industries.

  • System overhaul & installation: Installation, removal, and commissioning of critical machinery, including complex drive units, motors, pumps, gearboxes, and mechanical processing systems.
  • Asset improvement & optimisation: We don't just replace; we improve. Our specialists identify and execute system upgrades—such as reducing pipeline bends to enhance flow or implementing improved mechanical linkages—to significantly boost system efficiency and longevity.
  • Precision alignment & calibration: Expert laser alignment of drive units and shaft-to-shaft connections between motors and gearboxes to minimise friction, reduce premature wear, and maximise power transmission efficiency.
  • Advanced component maintenance: Detailed strip-downs, overhauls, and refurbishments of machinery, including the replacement of seals, bearings, and standard wear parts (e.g., screw flights).
  • Proactive preventative maintenance: Implementation of structured routines, including greasing, specialised lubrication, and component inspection, all planned to prevent costly unexpected failures and align with your shutdown schedules.

Root cause analysis: beyond the breakdown

When a component fails, our job is not simply to swap it out. A key differentiator of our mechanical fitting service is our capability for Root Cause Analysis (RCA).

We meticulously inspect failed components—from tearing down a gearbox to analysing bearing failure patterns—to identify why the failure occurred. This ensures we correct issues caused by:

  • Incorrect previous installations.
  • Improper material usage (e.g., wrong type of grease).
  • Systemic operational faults.

This diagnostic, data-driven approach eliminates recurring issues, turning a breakdown into a permanent system improvement.

A planned approach to operational certainty

We pride ourselves on offering a planned, quality-first approach to mechanical maintenance, setting us apart from purely reactive firms. Every job is executed with exceptional quality and attention to detail, ensuring the work we perform is an investment in your plant's long-term operational health, not just a temporary fix.

The Line Engineering ethos

Line Engineering Solutions logo symbol
Enhanced safety
Reducing traditional site working practices by transferring activities to controlled environments such as Fabrication/Engineering facilities. Hot work and working at heights can be massively reduced.

Improved schedule
Transferring site works to be performed in controlled facilities minimises the need to issue permits and reduces shutdown periods. It also improves the end product as operations such as pressure testing and NDT can be performed in a controlled enviroment. Such tasks mentioned often consume precious shutdown time.

Reduced project costs
By implementing a survey strategy, it allows you to meticulously control build projects, delegate tasks with a clear overview and most importantly reduce onsite activities.
