Legacy machines & support paths.

Thompson Duke has shipped machines continuously since 2015. Legacy units in the field receive support on a case-by-case basis, subject to parts availability, through direct conversation with the team.

§ 01 · What We Support

Three categories of legacy machine.

If your machine fits one of these categories, contact us with serial number and model, and we will route you to the right path.

01

ACF1 (pre-IZR)

The ACF1 was the predecessor to the IZR automatic filling machine. The ACF1 to IZR retrofit is not available. ACF1 owners can contact us about service, parts, or a replacement machine.

§ 03 · Honest Framing

What no retrofit exists for.

We are direct about what is and is not possible. The following retrofits do not exist; do not let anyone tell you otherwise.

×

LFP to MFP retrofit

No retrofit kit converts an LFP into an MFP. The two presses are mechanically and pneumatically different. LFP owners continue to receive service support; new press purchases ship MFP.

×

TPM to MFP retrofit

TPM was a 35-ton hydraulic press from a different machine class entirely. It is not the MFP predecessor and no upgrade path exists or is implied.

×

Big JIM CE variant

Big JIM is a North America-only machine. No CE-certified variant exists. EU operators looking for joint infusion should contact us to discuss options.
