IWM has become our regions expert in paper mill repairs & paper factory maintenance. Providing Paper Producers with many custom parts and repairs, such as:

Over the many decades, we have worked on nearly every type of paper mill roll on both the repair and fabrication sides of the process. Some of the most common paper mill roll types we have repaired are:

  • Bowed Rolls
  • Calendar Rolls

  • Crown Control Rolls
  • Embossing Rolls

  • Table Rolls

Paper Mill Driveshaft Repair

Paper mill driveshafts are under constant pressure and stress and require regular inspection and maintenance. We specialize in low-lead and quick paper mill driveshaft repair and maintenance.

Debarker Repair

Paper mill equipment repair involves a wide variety of machinery and components. One of the larger pieces of pulp equipment is the debarker machine. Mechanical debarkers often have a large chain driven rotary and hydraulic systems under high impact stresses, which over time reduce performance and eventually lead to breakdowns. Our experience allows us to quickly strip down, repair and reinstall debarker components as part of regular maintenance or repairs, keeping downtown to the absolute minimum.

If your paper or pulp facility is needs fabrication, welding, or other industrial metalwork or maintenance performed on your machinery, our long history means we’ve likely worked on it before. Call us today if you have any questions or need immediate paper mill equipment repairs.
