    Our Comprehensive Makino Spindle Repair Method

    We have designed a thorough spindle repair method that delivers like-new performance every time, allowing manufacturers to resume operations confidently.

    Our qualified team repairs motorized, gear-driven, belt-driven, direct drive, and many other spindle types with RPMs of all speeds Makino makes. Count on us to service a variety of spindles, regardless of the application and for all industry’s including automotive, medical, defense, stone cutting, or others.

    Spindle Disassembly, Failure Assessment, and Inspection

    Upon receiving the spindle, we disassemble, clean, and evaluate it to isolate issues and determine why it failed. We test:

    • Drawbar pull force by measuring the spindle’s ability to grip the tool holder.
    • Motor parts to check for shorts or insulation issues.
    • Encoders and sensors to ensure they generate an accurate signal.

    Our team also inspects spindle parts for damage and wear through a visual assessment and measures the taper, face, pilot, shaft, and housing to identify fit and size issues.

    Meticulous Spindle Repair

    Upon identifying the issues, we service them to return the Makino spindle to like-new status. Our expert team:

    • Returns the original clamping power with new springs/seals, which is critical for machining safety and accuracy.
    • Addresses face, pilot, taper, and other connection issues to ensure correct tool seating.
    • Fixes shaft and housing fit and size issues by returning them to factory specs and enabling new bearings to fit properly.
    • Replaces worn-out parts or reverse engineers and manufactures unavailable or obsolete parts in-house.
    • Laser cladding, chrome plating, and precision regrinding to reach OEM specifications for fit and finish.

    Reassembly, Testing, and Balancing

    We reassemble the spindle and precision balance it to ensure smooth operation and prevent premature wear. We also test all electrical parts and ensure the spindle performs like new under controlled conditions. 

    Once we rebuild the spindle to meet specifications, we return it with documentation and certification of all our tests. We also provide warranty coverage.
