Recall of Komori machines?

Friends in the industry say that Komori faced some problems a few years ago resulting in the recall of several models.

Is this true? If so which models were affected?

 

Never , this sounds like fiction

Every machine maker can have some problems from time to time but to recall presses back ????

This sounds like fiction and non realistic

 

i dont remember ever hearing about this, i know sometimes manufacturers upgrade parts, if the person that told you this is an engineer... from my experience most of the talk a load of bollox so...

 

Recalling a press...only if it's not been paid for. Press issues are always resolved onsite. Even cylinder replacement can be carried out onsite. So I'm with Meny & Rolandman...it's bollocks.

 

i have seen modifications done to fix manufacturers problems on site but never heard of recalls

 

Hmmm, maybe a rumour put out by a competitor..big H maybe?

 

I was running a 1998 6/28 and Komori replaced all the gripper bars. there was a problem with them having cracks between certain serial numbers.

 

But I bet Komori didn't take the press back to Japan to do it? ;-)
