What do our clients have to say about us?
Container ship Take a container ship ploughing its course across the Atlantic. One cylinder out of seven down due to a cylinder lining casting. This failure means a day on a crossing; far from small change on charter rates. A replacement casting from the OEM would have taken many weeks. Intake Engineering made it to classification standards in a fraction of that time.

"Intake's speedy, flexible and agile thinking had our container ship back on its course within 14 days with a saving of literally thousands of £s. Not only did it cost less, but also the savings in lost revenue were significant."

Board Roller Nothing lasts forever! Who can remanufacture from scratch a production machine that is still in use, when the original manufacturer has long ceased trading? That’s exactly what we did for wallboard manufacturer Cape Boards.
We teamed up to produce a new 925 mm Ø 2 m long and 2 tonne in weight Making Roller to replace an ageing original. Proof of the value in the relationship was the remanufacture of their Spooner oven fans, hefty 30 kW units that circulate dust-laden hot air at 300 rpm.

" My concerns about the difficulty of manufacturing a replacement roller with so little to go on were taken away by Intake's open engineering approach. Problems were for solving. "
