Field Service & Equipment Upgrades
At Braner USA, we understand the real cost of unplanned downtime. That’s why we provide full-service field support and equipment upgrade services tailored to your operation—whether you’re running a Braner line or considering a robust upgrade on another OEM’s equipment.
From mechanical retrofits to advanced automation and safety enhancements, our experienced technicians and engineers help you modernize aging systems, meet new production demands, and stay ahead of obsolescence—all while maximizing your ROI.
As control technology evolves, many older coil processing lines—still mechanically sound—face growing risk from outdated or unsupported electrical systems.

Learn MoreKey Features & Benefits
- Factory-Certified Field Technicians
Our service team is trained on hundreds of lines built by Braner. We offer expert support to get your equipment back up and running quickly. - Annual Preventative Maintenance Inspections
We provide comprehensive yearly evaluations of your line’s condition—complete with detailed reports and recommendations to prevent costly downtime before it happens. - Control System Modernization
We replace outdated relay logic or legacy Allen-Bradley platforms (e.g., RSLogix 500) with current-generation PLCs, HMIs, and remote I/O—designed for safety integration and automation scalability. - Safety Integration
Add safety fencing, interlocked access gates, light curtains, or programmable safety zones tied into your control system. - Remote Technical Support
When on-site support isn’t possible, our VIP (Virtual In-Plant) tech support gives you live video troubleshooting access with a Braner technician. - Slitting Head Conversions
If you’re using a system with slow lift-off heads, inline slitting heads with capstans, or a worn out injector-style slitting head, Braner can come on site and scope out your Slitting line and retrofit with a modern turret-head slitter into your existing line. Our turret heads enable faster, more reliable changeovers—without replacing the entire machine, giving you the performance of a new line at a fraction of the cost. - Shear & Stacker Retrofits
For cut-to-length lines, we can replace outdated stackers and shears with automated systems that bring precision, speed, and reliability. Our automated shears feature automatic blade gap and rake angle adjustment based on the material being processed—improving cut quality and reducing operator involvement.
Let Braner’s automated retrofits bring your line up to date with operator-friendly systems and proven repeatability. - Stretch Leveler Integration
If you currently operate a cut-to-length line and want to add more value without replacing your entire system, Braner can retrofit a high-performance stretch leveler into your existing line.This upgrade boosts flatness quality and processing capability—saving you the cost of an entirely new line while expanding your production potential.
