Gear and Gearbox Repair Services

About Gear and Gearbox Repair Services

Gear repair and gearbox repair services repair gears, gearboxes and speed reducers. Gears are mechanical devices that transmit power and motion between axes. They differ in terms of type, teeth, direction, size, features, and materials of construction. Gearboxes consist of a set of gears, shafts, and bearings that are factory-mounted in an enclosed, lubricated housing. They are sometimes called gearheads or speed reducers. Speed reducers come in a broad range of sizes, capacities and speed ratios. Their function is to convert the input provided by a prime mover into an output of lower revolutions per minute (RPM) and correspondingly higher torque. Gear and gearbox repair services that specialize in speed reducers with spur, helical, planetary, harmonic, or worm gearing arrangements are commonly available.
