Scrap it?! Or can it be saved?
A customer brought this component into our Lynx Ottawa branch with serious corrosion and failed material around the housing.
At first glance, replacement looked like the obvious answer. But our shop tech, Matthew Perras, was up for the challenge.
Matthew removed the failed material, fabricated new sections, rebuilt the structure, and completed the weld repair in-house — ultimately helping the customer save over $25,000 compared to a replacement.
This is the kind of work that happens behind the scenes in our shops every day. Our technicians are not just replacing parts. They are problem-solving, fabricating, rebuilding, and finding practical ways to help customers get more life out of their equipment.
Great work by Matthew and the Lynx Ottawa team. 👏
Leave it to Lynx.
