    Our Spindle Repair Process

    Manufacturers can expect Setco to follow a comprehensive process for spindle repairs. Our technicians provide an efficient turnaround to help keep spindles in operation. We can even offer emergency repairs for operations seeking to minimize downtime as much as possible. We repair all types of Hurco spindles, including: lathe, high-speed, milling, drilling, and boring. Here are the steps we follow:

    We perform an initial visual inspection and run tests for runout, vibration, and abnormal noise. Based on these details, we provide a repair quote. 

    We conduct a thorough examination while disassembling the spindle and inspecting each component. We carefully handle and document all components. Once all components have been inspected, a quote will be generated outlining all repairs needed, costs, and turnaround for the unit to be repaired to OEM specs or better.

    Once the quote is approved, technicians replace all damaged bearings, seals, and other components with parts that match or exceed OEM quality. Hurco spindles often require high-precision angular contact bearings and correct preload settings. 

    We dynamically balance the shaft and rotating assembly for smooth operation. Then, our team reassembles the spindle in a clean environment to maintain its quality. 

    We perform runout checks, thermal stability tests, and tool retention force measurements to ensure the spindle is compatible with Hurco machine tool controls and calibration. Afterward, we return the spindle with complete documentation of the work performed.
