Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers to common questions from Northeast Colorado operators, equipment owners, maintenance teams, and local businesses.

What services does Luft Machine offer?

Luft Machine provides machining, welding, custom fabrication, maintenance and repair, part design and rebuilding, material supply, hydraulic cylinder repair, mobile welding and field support, truck and trailer steel repair, cutting, forming, rolling, and sand blasting. The right path depends on the part, material, equipment, and job.

Who does Luft Machine work with?

We work with farmers, ranchers, feedlots, food-processing and industrial maintenance teams, contractors, municipal and fleet operations, truck and trailer owners, and local businesses throughout Northeast Colorado.

Can Luft repair or recreate a broken, worn, or missing part?

Often, yes. Bring the broken or worn part when possible. Luft can review whether repair, rebuilding, machining a replacement, or fabricating a new piece is practical. The answer depends on the condition, material, fit, and intended use.

Can Luft work from a sketch, photo, sample part, or rough idea?

Yes. Not every job starts with a finished drawing. A sketch, clear photos, basic dimensions, equipment information, or the original part can help the shop understand the problem and identify what else is needed.

Does Luft offer mobile welding and field support?

Luft supports appropriate mobile welding and field-repair needs. Availability depends on the job, location, timing, and scope. Some repairs are better handled in the shop when they require machining, material, rebuilding, or more controlled access.

Does Luft repair hydraulic cylinders?

Luft offers hydraulic cylinder repair for appropriate ag, industrial, construction, truck, trailer, municipal, and equipment applications. Bring the cylinder or call with its equipment use, symptoms, dimensions, photos, and any known damage so the shop can review the next step. See Luft’s hydraulic cylinder repair services.

Can I buy steel, material, bearings, or other shop items from Luft?

Luft supports local material and shop-item needs, including steel, sheet, tubing, shaft, bearings, bronze, chain, fasteners, and related items when available. Inventory changes, so call ahead for a specific material or size.

Does Luft work on trucks, trailers, tanks, and toolboxes?

Luft handles appropriate truck and trailer steel repair, fuel tank fabrication and repair, toolbox fabrication and repair, brackets, frames, mounts, and related custom work. The shop must review the material, condition, prior use, and job requirements before recommending work.

Can Luft handle both one-time projects and ongoing repair or maintenance needs?

Yes. Luft helps with one-time repairs, custom parts, and fabrication projects as well as recurring maintenance and plant or equipment support. Contact the shop to discuss the schedule and scope.

What should I bring or send when requesting a quote?

Bring or send the part, sketch, drawing, clear photos, dimensions, equipment make and model, material if known, and a description of what failed or what the finished piece must do. The shop will identify any additional information needed.

Where is Luft located and what area does it serve?

Luft Machine is located at 413 Riverside Dr in Sterling, Colorado. The shop primarily serves Sterling, Logan County, Northeast Colorado, and nearby regional operators. Field-service availability depends on location and job scope.
