Reconditioning and Repair

Industrial gearbox repairs

Although modern industrial gearboxes are technically advanced and versatile units capable of operating for up to one hundred thousand hours, some of their components may eventually begin to wear.

Why should gearboxes be reconditioned?

Gear transmissions are subject to heavy-duty operation, which gradually wears the mating components. Increased noise, vibration or oil leakage may indicate that a machine gearbox requires repair.

Ignoring these warning signs may lead to serious failures and, ultimately, a complete production stoppage. To avoid costly downtime and even more expensive replacement of entire units, regular technical inspections are essential. If defects are identified during inspection, industrial gearbox repair is recommended.

How do we recondition gearboxes?

JAMET uses advanced equipment for gearbox reconditioning. We use, among other equipment, precision devices for diagnosing faults, testing and repairing all types of gearboxes. This allows us to carry out comprehensive industrial gearbox repairs regardless of gearbox size or type. We use a CAD/CAM system, which enables us to achieve the best possible results when CNC machining gearbox components.

After receiving an order, our specialists transport the unit to our shop, where the damage is assessed and the components are cleaned. We carry out detailed diagnostics using specialist instruments, allowing us to determine the scope of the required work precisely.

Gearbox repair at our shop may also include an analysis of the causes of failure. The repair scope is discussed with the customer, and damaged components are either replaced with new ones or reconditioned, depending on their condition and degree of wear. Every industrial gearbox repair is completed with a series of necessary quality tests before the unit is transported back to the customer.

Frequently asked questions

Find out more about our reconditioning and repair services.

We do not provide on-site reconditioning at the customer’s premises. Within a 50 km radius of Tychy, we offer equipment disassembly and transport to our shop, where the reconditioning process is carried out.

We recondition parts made of steel, cast steel and cast iron. The possibility of reconditioning depends primarily on the size of the component and the degree of wear. As a rule, the larger the component, the more cost-effective reconditioning becomes. However, we assess every inquiry individually.

For the basic scope, which includes the replacement of bearings, seals and other standard components, gearbox reconditioning usually takes 1 to 2 weeks. If gears or other special components need to be manufactured, the completion date is agreed individually.

In urgent cases, we provide express crane wheel reconditioning. Once a specific date has been agreed, we reserve production capacity for your order. Depending on the wheel size, the lead time is 2 to 3 working days per wheel.

Gear reconditioning is used only very rarely. The only method we accept involves removing the worn teeth on a lathe, manufacturing a sleeve, fitting it permanently and then cutting new teeth. We do not hardface gears.
