Parts & Service

We keep presses running for decades.

Every press we sell comes with the works that built it — parts, training, and diagnostics for its whole working life.

Most Timson presses ever built are still in daily service

The commitment

A press down is money down. We have your back.

A Timson press is a decades-long relationship, and we hold up our side of it. Parts come from a dedicated spares inventory, cast in our own foundry and machined in our own shop — not from a third-party supply chain. Diagnostics dial straight into your press from Kettering or North America. And the people who train your crews are the people who built the machine.

That commitment doesn't expire. Most Timson presses built in the last 40 years are still in daily service — supported, upgraded, and running around the clock.

Six ways the works stands behind every press it ships.

Installation & commissioning01

Installation & commissioning

Print-tested in Kettering, then commissioned to the same standard on your floor by our own technicians.

Operator training02

Operator training

Your crews trained on your press, by the people who built it — until they run it at full speed.

Remote diagnostics03

Remote diagnostics

Kettering and North America dial straight into the press for fault diagnosis and control updates.

Legacy support

Still running a T32? Good. So are we.

A press that has earned for forty years deserves better than an apologetic parts desk. Because we cast and machine on site, we can make parts for presses long out of production — the same way the originals were made.

  • Parts for the T32, T48A, and every ZMR generation
  • Castings poured in our own Kettering foundry
  • Remote support from the UK and North America
  • Upgrade paths that extend a press's earning life
