REPAIRS & REBUILDING

Some of our gearbox services include disassembly, cleaning, inspection, replacing bearings and seals, reassembly and painting. If during the inspection we find any broken or worn gears we will quote them on a T&M basis.

rebuilding gearboxes with no downtime

NO DOWNTIME PROGRAM

If you think you have a problem, don’t wait until it’s too late. We can repair one or two gearboxes at a time which could allow you to continue running your machinery while we are rebuilding. This option may not work for every tube mill or rollformer, contact us to discuss your options.

NEW REPLACEMENTS

Some gearboxes cannot be rebuilt if the OEM is no longer available. Universal is an authorized Cone Drive distributor and can provide a custom solution to replace gearboxes that can no longer be serviced.

New Tube Mill Welder Installation

Universal was on-site at a customers’ plant to service an existing welder that suddenly stopped working. The plant was in dire need to have a working welder in a short time period due to production requirements. Universal’s teams evaluated their system and upon obtaining the results, it was decided by the customer to replace the existing equipment with a completely new welder system.

Typically a new welder purchase can take up to 8 weeks or more to be built, shipped, installed and running. Thankfully Universal had a new ERWTech welder on their floor that was ready for immediate shipping and installation. Our experienced technicians removed the existing system, installed and completed the start-up of the new welder in just 36 hours from their initial visit.

New High Frequency Welder Installation

Universal handles U.S. sales and support for ERWTech machinery and carries in-stock high-frequency welders, cold saws, and standard replacement parts for customer inspection or immediate purchase. Contact Universal for more information about the machinery and services we offer.
