Extending the life and capability of existing equipment can be a cost-effective alternative to full machine replacement. Innovative Machine Corporation provides comprehensive retrofit and rebuild services to modernize, modify, and repurpose machinery across a wide range of manufacturing and converting applications.

IMC supports mechanical, electrical, and controls upgrades, working closely with customers to evaluate equipment condition, production goals, and long-term requirements. Projects may range from targeted feature additions to full machine rebuilds, including structural refurbishment, roll train upgrades, and complete control system replacements.

Common retrofit services include controls modernization with updated PLC and HMI platforms, integration of inline inspection and metrology systems such as beta gauges, X-ray, laser measurement, and camera inspection, and the addition of new automation features. Mechanical modifications may include improved web handling, upgraded tension control, added process stations, or reconfiguration to support new products or materials.

Each project begins with a detailed engineering review and cost evaluation to define the most effective solution. Retrofit and rebuild work can be performed in-house or at the customer’s facility, depending on scope and schedule. IMC’s goal is to deliver reliable, well-engineered upgrades that improve performance, extend equipment life, and align with current production demands.
