About Services News/Blog Contact WHY SHOULD YOU CHOOSE US TO SERVICE YOUR ROTARY SCREW COMPRESSOR? Disco was one of the very first companies to rebuild rotary screw compressors in the Texas panhandle and Kansas gas fields back in the early 1990’s. It was a natural fit for us because we are a machine shop first and foremost. We will be able to take your rotary screw compressor and determine what exactly needs to be done to get the compressor back up and running. By tearing down the rotary screw compressor, it can be determined what the cause of failure was and what exactly needs to be done, which will then allow for an estimate to be given on the cost of the repair and an estimate of how long the repair will take along with detailed pictures of our findings. Even though the turnaround time can vary depending on what shape the compressor is in when it is brought into the shop, we have a standing inventory for a variety of parts for a number of manufacturers including Ariel, Sullair, Atlas Copco, Frick, Leroi, I/R, Quincy, etc. and many others, to help minimize the time that the rotary screw compressor will spend in the shop, allowing you to have your compressor back out in a faster time period. One of the components are the bearings within the screw compressors, and these are the parts that fail the most often. This scenario often means that your rotary screw compressor is going to need machine work because of damage to the either the rotors (bearing areas) or the heads. Typical machine work that is done on rotary screw compressors includes sleeving the air gap, and preparing, metalizing, and machining the input shaft, along with other component work. The normal turnaround that you will see for your rotary screw compressor being serviced can be from two to four weeks, but if the process needs to be done faster and is approved, this time can be reduced.
