Screw and barrel repair

At GEAR, we have established a distinctive method for restoring equipment to its original specifications, thereby enhancing its longevity and performance. Our expertise allows us to refurbish equipment that may be chipped, broken, or cracked due to prior grinding, ensuring it meets manufacturer standards.

Our repair and refurbishment services encompass a wide array of tasks, such as flight repairs, root and radius repairs, and complete coatings for extrusion and injection screws. Flight repairs are carried out with precision through a multi-step welding technique that employs plasma transferred arc welding, all under a stringent quality control framework. Root and radius repairs utilize compatible base metals or hard surfacing to ensure increased protection against potential future damage. Furthermore, full-length coatings significantly enhance durability, especially for extruders that handle reinforced resins.

Our expertise extends to the repair and reconstruction of pelletizers, encompassing strand, underwater, and water ring types, thereby guaranteeing peak efficiency upon project completion. Whether the task requires a straightforward knife replacement or a thorough overhaul of the entire unit and drying system, our skilled personnel, advanced machining capabilities, and extensive inventory of parts empower us to execute any assignment with accuracy and professionalism.

At GEAR, we hold the conviction that every pump can be repaired and should not be considered as waste. Each piece of equipment we handle is meticulously restored to not only comply with but surpass industry standards, resulting in improved durability and performance. Our services are supported by an extended lifespan and warranty guarantee, offering our clients reassurance and confidence.
