What is done to repair an industrial machine tool spindle?
HST has several goals for each spindle repair we do: • Determine the cause of failure • Repair the spindle to “As-New” condition • Protect the spindle for safe transit • Provide useful information to help our customers avoid future failures Log-In The first step is to log-in and check the spindle serial numbers against our data base of over 100,000 spindle repairs. Once logged in and photographed the spindle next goes to our breakdown and clean area. Here the spindle is completely disassembled and thoroughly cleaned. Breakdown and Clean Depending on the type and condition of the spindle, proper breakdown and cleaning can be labor intensive and time consuming. Taking apart a spindle may include cutting off seized nuts and pressing off rotors in our 100 ton press. Old paint is stripped off. All orifice and lubrication plugs are removed to get at minute internal passages that often harbor contamination. Scale and corrosion are removed from water jackets and cooling surfaces. Tapped holes
