CUstomer Testimonial

June 17, 2018 the Gray Chisholm power plant experienced a sudden trip on the number four turbine. After examining the generator the results were dire. The head plate bearing cover was destroyed. The manufacture apologized, but the quickest replacement part would be 11 days. No longer able to generate the 2.1 gigawatts needed for the plants’ flux capacitor the call goes out to Payton Machine. Payton’s supervisors arrive and begin the process of measuring a replacement bearing cover. They relay the specs back to the headquarters and mechanical engineer Marcella O’Neill working nonstop around the clock using the CNC Nexus 2 she fabricates an exact fit of the bearing cover. Within 2 days the plant was back online and generating electricity. When Time is Money Payton is your solution!

Steam turbine Repair

My name is Bob Phillips I am the directing manager of the Gray Chisholm power. I had a situation develop in 2018, and the dilemma was the turbine manufacturer could not deliver the parts we needed in time. I reached out to Payton Machine located in Borger Texas. They assured me they could resolve my issue and have the plant online in a timely manner. True to their word that is exactly what they did, I highly recommend Payton to anyone who is in the business of running a plant. Payton has proven to be the company to call in an emergency or for preventive plant maintenance. Payton has the team, the equipment and the experience to get the job done.

“I’ve come to expect was the norm integrity, honesty, outstanding attention to detail and willingness to go above and beyond when dealing with Payton Machine. I have the utmost respect for the crews that come to the plant and the family that runs this business, and rely heavily on the expertise they bring to the table. I’ve been at the plant long enough to literally see generations of people from this plant and Payton Machine work together towards common goals.”
