Industrial Shaft Repair

Industrial Plating offers turnkey shaft repair and improvement services. Rotating parts must be well maintained to sustain the operating effectiveness of equipment, avoid costly downtime, and help prevent accidents which could result from equipment failure.

Our skilled team has experience repairing and remanufacturing shafts used across numerous industries. We also offer our experience improving the operating life by offering various coating solutions that can reduce damage due to gaulding, reduce improve wear resistance on seal surfaces, dynamically balance to reduce vibration and/or improve motor life and efficiencies.

Examples

Shaft Repair

Roll Repair

Precision machined shaft ready for keyway repair and protective coating services.

Precision shaft straightening tool designed for effective shaft repair and maintenance services.

Diameter Restoration and Improved Wear Resistance

Industrial Plating offers several options for restoring the diameter and improving the wear resistance of the surfaces that are repaired on the shafts. The worn shaft repair processes that we recommend will be dependent on the geometry of the part, its repair history, scope of the damage, and its operating environment. We may recommend shaft coating with application of Plasma Coatings, Hard Chrome, HVOF Coatings or other solutions based on your needs.

Using these shaft coating technologies eliminates the chance that the shaft will become warped or that the metal becomes brittle causing the shaft to shear during installation or operation.

Repaired surfaces are precision ground to ensure the completed part meets dimensional tolerances, concentricity and total indicated runout.

Bearing Surface Repair

Bearing surfaces can be damaged due to bearing failure or occur when removal of the bearings results in damage to the shaft. Industrial Plating can repair bearing surfaces without distorting the shaft. Our precision grinding capabilities enable us to restore dimensions to typical bearing tolerances of 0.0002 - 0.0003 inches or less while maintaining concentricity.

Seal surface repair on a shaft, showcasing coating solutions to enhance wear resistance.

Seal Surfaces

Seal surfaces can experience wear if the shaft becomes warped or abrasive contaminates get between the packing material and shaft. Industrial Plating can repair the surfaces to better condition by offering various coating solutions which improve the wear resistance.

Expertly repaired tapered shaft surface, restored to precise specifications for optimal performance.

Tapered Surfaces

Industrial Plating has experience and expertise to repair tapered surfaces on shafts. Whether the surface has a Jarno taper, Morris taper, or another custom taper, our team has the expertise and equipment repair the tapered surface to restore it to the correct taper and achieve the proper gauge line.

Dynamic Balancing

In addition to making repairs, we also offer dynamically balancing to ensure your shafts will not vibrate on install and will greatly improve the life of your bearings and machinery. We have dynamically balanced shafts that rotate at more than 25,000 RPM's. Find out more about our dynamic balancing services.
