    Holryod machine for manufacturing twin screws for compressors

    My company has recently aquired Lysholm the twin screw supercharger manufacturer. They have a "Holryod" machine that is going to be brought to my company from Sweeden where they were previously located. I am trying to find out any information about this machine. I did a few searches on the net with no luck. Has anyone ever heard of these machines?
    Thanks,
    Surfit.

    Holroyd

    I did maintenance on several large Holroyd machines.
    The Ingersoll Rand plant in Mocksville NC used them in manufacturing large turbines for thier industrial compressors.
    The machines are well made and rock solid.
    The controls are not like a fanuc and and take some getting used to.
    One flaw on the older ones is no pressure drop sensor in the way lube system.
    If you blow a line the machine won't alarm out. This cost Ingersoll a great deal of money In having the ways rebuilt.
    They eventually retrofitted their machines with modern Bijur lube systems.

    Edit:
    Cool, these things just have that expensive look.
