Mobile line boring
Alignment and precision machining of worn pin, hinge, pivot and bearing bores directly on the machine, vessel or structure.
MOBILE LINE BORING & BORE RESTORATIONIN ESTONIA AND ACROSS EUROPE
Worn bore?
Restore it on site.
Restore worn bores directly on the machine, vessel or structure: line boring, weld build-up and finish machining as one complete on-site repair. Less dismantling and transport, less downtime, and verified final dimensions.
For an initial assessment, send: 3–5 photos · approximate Ø · location · required timing

SERVICES
Not just metal removal. Restore the geometry, size and fit.
Wear creates play, poor fit and accelerating damage in pins, bushings and bearing positions. BoreHub restores the bore on site so the joint can return to the intended geometry and working fit.
02
Weld build-up
When wear is too severe for machining alone, material is rebuilt by welding and prepared for final machining.
03
Finish machining & dimensional verification
The restored bore is machined to the agreed final dimension and checked before handover.
INDUSTRIES
Specialist repair where downtime has a real cost.
On-site restoration is most valuable on large, heavy or installed components that are impractical to dismantle and transport only for machining.
01
Marine repair
Hatch-cover hinge and pin bores, ramps, deck machinery, pivot connections and other worn bore or bushing seats.
02
Heavy equipment
Excavators, loaders, booms, buckets, frames, pin bores and articulated joints.
03
Ports & terminals
Cranes, reach stackers, lifting and cargo-handling equipment where downtime directly affects operations.
04
Industrial machinery
Machines and structures where dismantling or transport would be slow, difficult or expensive.
ON-SITE
Bring the machining to the component — not the component to the workshop.
On-site machining is more than convenience. Where conditions allow, it can remove stages of dismantling, lifting, transport and reinstallation from the repair chain.
01
Less dismantling & lifting
Where possible, machining is completed at the assembly, reducing the need to remove and handle large components.
02
Less logistics
Large components do not always need to travel to a machine shop and back — the tooling comes to the component.
03
Verified result
The job does not end with welding. The bore is finish-machined to the agreed dimension and checked before handover.
04
Planned or unexpected repair
The same method suits planned maintenance and wear discovered during operation, inspection or dry-docking.
WORK EXAMPLES
Real work. Visible results.
BEFORE / AFTER
The same component before and after restoration
This is the same component. On the left is the condition before restoration; on the right is the same part after restoration, with a clean machined surface and restored geometry.
On-site work means genuinely on site.
MARINE REPAIR
Setup on the structure
Portable machining equipment is mounted directly at the repair location.
HEAVY EQUIPMENT
Full-cycle field work
Machining and restoration are carried out at the equipment, reducing unnecessary dismantling.
DIMENSIONAL CONTROL
Measurement is part of the repair
Measurements help define the scope and verify the restored geometry.
GEOMETRY
Geometry before and after
The same bore before restoration and after finish machining.
PROCESS
The first assessment starts with photos and dimensions.
01
Send photos & basic details
3–5 clear photos, location, approximate bore diameter, number of repair positions and required timing.
02
Technical assessment
We review access, wear, alignment requirements, repair method and the equipment needed for the job.
03
Clear scope & quotation
Once the information is sufficient, we agree the scope, price, timing and mobilisation.
04
Repair & final verification
Alignment and machining, weld build-up where required, finish machining and final dimensional checks before handover.
FAQ
Is line boring the right repair for your job?
Not sure? Send photos. We will give you a practical first view on whether the repair makes sense on site or whether another method is more appropriate.
Q1
Does the component have to be removed?
Often, no. Portable equipment is set up at the repair location and the machining is completed in place when access and working conditions allow.
Q2
Is weld build-up always required?
No. The method depends on the amount of wear, material, final dimension and required fit. Some bores only need machining; others need material rebuilt first.
Q3
What bore sizes can you work with?
Practical hands-on experience covers approximately Ø40–500 mm. Each job is assessed individually because access, geometry and working conditions matter just as much as diameter.
Q4
Do you work only in Estonia?
BoreHub is based in Estonia. For suitable scopes, mobilisation is possible across the Baltics and to other European projects.
