Three Ways We Keep Machines True
01 — Training & Classes
Hands-on seminars in hand and BIAX power scraping, leveling, and alignment — at our facility or inside your shop. Learn 20 PPI in a week, 40 in two.
02 — Machine Services
Complete rebuilding and reconditioning — way and box-way scraping, leveling, alignment, and Rulon® 142 application for conventional and CNC machine tools.
03 — Tools & Sales
As a DAPRA® representative, we supply BIAX power and hand scrapers, KING-WAY straightedges and alignment instruments, marking inks, and Rulon.
The KING-WAY Method
Scraping is how a machine becomes accurate — and stays accurate. We coat a surface in marking blue, read the high spots, and scrape them down by hand until the bearing pattern is perfect. It is slow, exacting, and cannot be faked.
- Hand & BIAX power scraping to a guaranteed 20–40 points per inch
- Leveling, squaring, and alignment of slides, ways, and gibs
- Scraping of cast iron, steel, bronze, Babbitt, and PTFE wear strips
- We rebuild your equipment using your tools, while your team learns
Proven on the Floor
Even though our rebuilders are experienced at scraping, they learned new techniques to improve accuracy and efficiency. I strongly recommend King-Way for Basic 40/40 hand and advanced machine scraping.
