A case study of the steel industry machine repair did by us:

An old client of ours brought in a friend who’s having a little problem with the steel fabrication machine. The job required us to rebuild and repair the drive gear case that moves slabs of steel. To restore, we applied MIG welding for renewing the cracks, after which we used CNC machining to re-do the bores to be able to print specifications.

We reamed the holes and assembled the gear case with new hardware, installed the bearing seals, installed idler wheels, we installed and aligned seal rings, and finally, we sandblasted this 8.7” high x 9” long x 4” full gear case before we applied a yellow coating. We ensured we ran a test before delivering it to the client’s facility, and he was well pleased.

When Gears are chipped, gouged, damaged, and worn, we bolster their performance by restoring them to OEM specifications. We examine the Gear to determine the cause of failure, such as misalignment, excessive heat, or overloading to help resolve any issues or problems with the gear's performance. Inside the machine shop, we build up and regrind Gears to critical tolerances, repair journals and bearing surfaces, and build replacement components. We can plate Gears to improve performance as well as apply a heat treatment. With our equipment assets and specialized experience, no repair is too difficult or too complicated.
