As the world’s largest independent spindle rebuilder, Setco brings advanced expertise and a proven repair process to keep your operation running smoothly.

    Our Spindle Repair Process

    Setco repairs over 14,000 spindles annually using a comprehensive process designed to identify issues, complete precise repairs, and verify performance:

    • Comprehensive assessment: Our technicians disassemble the spindle, clean all components, and evaluate the failure mode to determine the root cause of the problems.
    • Disassembly: We carefully inspect critical components for signs of damage, wear, and improper fit.
    • Repair: We restore spindles to OEM specifications or above by replacing worn parts, reconditioning housings, regrinding shafts, and reverse-engineering components when necessary.
    • Reassembly and precision balance: All spindles are expertly reassembled. Components are checked for proper balance to ensure smooth operation and prevent premature wear.
    • Testing: Every rebuilt spindle undergoes full testing at maximum speed until thermally stabilized, with vibration data stored electronically for future reference.

    Setco also provides slide repair and milling head repair to support manufacturers with comprehensive machine tool service needs.

    Types of Service Options

    We offer three types of service for spindles. When scheduling service, choose the option that is right for your spindle or request custom services to meet your unique needs.

    How to Identify Spindle Issues

    Recognizing spindle problems early can prevent costly machine damage. Watch for these common warning signs:

    • Decreased performance: The most significant indicator of spindle issues.
    • Excessive vibration: Unusual vibration during operation can reveal spindle issues long before they’re apparent to operators.
    • Noise: Grinding, squealing, and other abnormal sounds suggest bearing failure or lubrication issues.
    • Heat: Spindles running hotter than normal may have bearing problems, inadequate cooling, or seal failure.
    • Poor surface finish: Declining part quality and surface finishes that fall below their normal standard may indicate that a machine needs maintenance.
