Gearbox Overhaul for a Steel Manufacturer

The scope of the works is as followed

  1. Gearbox arranged and collected directly from customers site
  2. Gearbox striped, inspected then reported the findings, Ensuring the reliability and longevity of gearboxes in various applications
  3. Shot blast gearbox casing and then performed crack detection on casing
  4. Prime and painted the gearbox casing internally & externally after crack detection
  5. Sleeve reclaim 4 off gearbox casing bores to bring them back to bearing tolerance
  6. Manufacture 3 off replacement end covers
  7. Manufacture 4 off replacement output shafts and accommodating locknuts
  8. Installed a new upgraded oil lubrication system, ensuring efficiency, reduce maintenance needs, enhance machine performance, and ultimately extend the lifespan of the unit
  9. Removing and replacing sections or the entire network of pipes responsible for delivering lubricants (such as oil or grease) to different parts of the unit
  10. Removal, selection, and installation of new fasteners to ensure the mechanical integrity and safety of the unit
  11. Supply new coupling pins & buffers for 4x output couplings, and 1x input coupling
  12. Supplying a complete set of new bearings and seals for the gearbox
  13. Machining, treating, assembling, and inspecting gears to ensure they perform reliably within a mechanical system
  14. Restoring and overhauling the whole unit, ensuring it is cleaned, inspected, and reassembled to ensure reliable and efficient performance
  15. Testing then running to ensure the proper functioning of both the gearbox and its lubrication system
  16. Clean down, paint, and badge, ensuring that the unit is both functional and visually appealing, with proper identification and protection for its intended use
  17. Transporting the fully prepared unit directly to its operational location
