Refurbishment and service of industrial gearboxes | Matris

The gearbox is the heart of your drive system. When it fails, everything stops. We specialize in the comprehensive refurbishment and service of gearboxes operating in combination with servo motors, AC motors, and other drives in demanding industrial applications—regardless of the manufacturer, type, or age of the device.


When is gearbox refurbishment the right decision?

In most cases, refurbishing a gearbox is significantly faster and more cost-effective than purchasing a new device—especially when:

  • spare parts are no longer available from the supplier
  • it is an OEM device that is no longer in production
  • dimensions are non-standard and catalog parts do not fit
  • the lead time for a new device is unacceptable
  • the cost of replacing the entire device is not justified

In such cases, refurbishment at our facility is often possible at a fraction of the cost of a new device and within a significantly shorter timeframe.

What does our gearbox refurbishment include?

Diagnostics and tolerance measurement

Every intervention begins with precise diagnostics. We measure bearing seat tolerances, check the wear of all components, and assess the scope of required work — before we start anything.

Replacement of bearings and seals

Worn bearings cause vibrations, inaccurate shaft guidance, and premature gearbox failure. We replace all bearings and seals to ensure reliable long-term operation.

Oil change

Old and contaminated oil accelerates wear and reduces the thermal and mechanical efficiency of the gearbox. We replace the oil with fresh lubricant of the appropriate viscosity.

Laser welding and shaft grinding

When bearing seats or seal surfaces on the shaft are worn, we restore the shaft using laser welding without thermal deformation and grind it to the exact specified dimensions.

Bearing seat refurbishment

When the bearing seats in the housing are no longer within the prescribed tolerances, we restore them—thereby ensuring the geometric compliance of the entire gearbox after refurbishment.

Custom manufacturing of gears and shafts

When original parts are no longer available for purchase, we manufacture them. Based on measurements of existing components, we prepare a 3D design and mill the parts on a 5-axis CNC machine. We also resolve non-standard dimensions.

AFTER REFURBISHMENT

Our process

  1. Collection and diagnostics: We collect the gearbox, disassemble it, and accurately diagnose the condition of all components.
  2. Quote: Based on the diagnostics, we prepare a clear quote with the scope of work, deadline, and price — with no hidden costs.
  3. Refurbishment: We perform all agreed interventions in our own workshop. Non-standard parts are manufactured in-house.
  4. Quality control: After refurbishment, we check the dimensions, tolerances, and operation of the gearbox before dispatch.
  5. Delivery: The refurbished gearbox is delivered anywhere in the world, packed for safe transport.

Refurbishment of two worm gearboxes

We refurbished two worm gearboxes for a client from an OEM machine that is no longer on the market. Since original gears and shafts could not be purchased, we designed them in 3D and milled them on a 5-axis CNC machine. Along with the comprehensive refurbishment, we saved the client more than €90,000 and six months of production downtime within a two-month period.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. When replacement parts are not available on the market, we manufacture them ourselves in our own workshop based on measurements of the existing components.

In most cases, a standard refurbishment is completed within one week. When custom manufacturing of non-standard parts—such as gears—is required, the lead time can be up to 8 weeks.

Yes. We offer a 12-month warranty on all performed services.

Yes. We ship refurbished gearboxes internationally, appropriately packed for safe transport.

We service all types of industrial gearboxes—worm, planetary, helical, and others—that are used in combination with servo motors, AC motors, or other industrial drives. We have experience with gearboxes of various manufacturers and dimensions.
