Bronco78th Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 Morning Folks, Just wondering if there are any Rotation S Specialists still around after Suregrave went belly up? We have 2 Rotation S Machines, One we got recently second hand - which I use for flat stuff, largely due to a lack of space but its only used really when we get busy.....and of course a back-up if the first machine fails. The Primary machine which is used daily, we got second hand about 3 years ago and its only had one check since then. Nothing specific wrong that I haven't been able to fix myself, but an increasing amount of squeaking and such is making me slightly anxious. Especially given the time of year we are about to go into and a 5 fold increase in work load, I don't fancy either machine breaking down on me. Just a piece of mind thing, as im not the most mechanically minded so don't really want to risk stripping parts not knowing what the hell im doing. Thanks in advance for any help/contacts!

Gray Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 Personally I'd chuck them in a skip and start afresh with a Umarq machine. Or Gravo as a second choice. failing that try these http://www.ronamachines.co.uk/ or PM shadowster he's had some problems with the rotation s until he saw the light. shadowster 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GK Solutions UK Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 Hi, Yes I do. What controller do you have on the machine? There are various controllers of which look very similar. Different controllers use different power boards. What is the problem with your current power board? By all means send me some pictures to : Enquiries@gksolutionsuk.com I can then determine what controller you have. Thanks Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GK Solutions UK Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 Hi, Sorry I did misread. I do also have main boards, handsets etc. but again you would need to confirm the controller. Thanks Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Gary When mine blew up I was told there was none about that's how I scrapped mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronco78th Posted November 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2015 Cheers for the Help Guys. Work wise im stuck with the Rotation S, no idea why we ended up with the second one, but the purse strings are tight and Im working with someone who has no idea, yet gets to make the final choices...which is how we ended up with 2 Rot S's. Anyway they are doing the job for now and ill bear those contacts in mind. I might be in the market for a machine myself in the not to distant future, getting a tad tired of the run of the mill stuff, want to get back to being creative again....
