What is the price and turnaround of spindle repair?
Turnaround time depends on the condition of the spindle. It can vary from a few days to a few weeks. Initial inspection is completed in 2 to 5 days working days and a reasonable estimate of time and cost will be available soon after.
What are the most common causes of spindle failure?
- Contamination (coolant, grinding grit, aluminum or steel chips)
- Lubricant breakdown
- Accidental contact to the part or fixture (a crash)
- Excessive vibration (unbalanced spindle or tool holder)
- Low drawbar force in milling spindles, allowing tool holder to escape while running.
What types of spindles do we repair?
We repair virtually all anti-friction bearing spindles - ball bearing spindles or roller bearing spindles. This includes: belt-driven or motorized, air-driven, high-frequency. For a list of manufacturer brands repaired, click here.
Can spindles be upgraded?
In practically every instance, yes. We can rework your spindle to run faster, run cooler, increase rigidity, resist contamination with added air purge or seals and more.
What class of spindle bearing do we use?
ABEC 7 and ABEC 9 precision bearings of equal or better quality than the original. We also use precision ceramic hybrid bearings per application requirements.
What if my spindle has missing or damaged parts?
We have the expertise and equipment to manufacture missing or damaged parts. We also build replacement spindles.
