Auto component and engineering plants in SIDCUL Sitarganj, Rudrapur and Pantnagar run presses, CNC machines and heavy material handling equipment. Floors in these plants typically suffer from loose machine base plates, cracks around foundations, broken joints on forklift routes and damaged dock edges. Because Sitarganj is a long trip from our Roorkee base, we plan repair jobs so that one mobilisation covers as much of the plant as possible.

Presses and machine foundations

Presses transmit heavy shock loads into their foundations. Over time, cement grout under base plates cracks, anchor bolts loosen and the concrete around them breaks. Machines lose alignment, which affects part quality.

Our repair approach:

  • support the machine and remove failed grout from under the base plate
  • reset loose anchor bolts in epoxy
  • clean and prepare the foundation surface
  • pour flowable epoxy grout under the base plate, filling it without voids

Epoxy grout handles impact, vibration and oil far better than cement grout, and machines can usually return to work within a day or two. If a foundation is cracked through or undersized, we flag it, because regrouting won't fix a failing foundation.

Forklift routes and joints

Joints in plant floors break under forklift wheels, especially when trucks carry heavy dies or coils. We saw-cut back to sound concrete, rebuild edges with epoxy mortar and fill joints with a semi-rigid filler. Potholes along routes are cut square and filled with epoxy mortar.

Dock edges

Loading dock edges break under truck tailgates and dock levellers. We rebuild them with high-strength epoxy mortar and recommend steel edge angles where impacts repeat.

Cracks around machines

Stable cracks are bonded with low-viscosity epoxy. Cracks that keep moving with machine vibration need flexible fillers, and sometimes an isolation joint between the machine foundation and the floor.

Terai conditions

Ground slabs in the Terai can be damp, and summers are hot. We check moisture before repairs, use damp-tolerant primers where needed, and work in cooler hours so epoxy materials don't set too fast.

Planning the job

  1. Share photos and a list of problem areas and machines.
  2. We give an initial view and a rough scope.
  3. One site visit confirms repairs, quantities and machine downtime windows.
  4. Repairs are done in one mobilisation, coordinated with your maintenance schedule.

FAQs

How long is a press out of production for regrouting?

Typically one to two days, depending on grout volume and temperature. We plan it with your maintenance team.

Can you do repairs across several plants in the area in one trip?

Yes. Combining work in Sitarganj, Rudrapur and Pantnagar makes scheduling easier and reduces cost.

Why use epoxy grout instead of cement grout?

Epoxy grout bonds better, resists vibration and oil, and gains strength much faster.
