Reliable Gearbox Repair Shop Services

Houston Pump & Gear repairs and overhauls a broad range of industrial gearbox designs, including helical, bevel, worm, planetary, speed increaser, and reduction drive units. The repair scope can include disassembly, inspection, gear and bearing evaluation, shaft and housing work, reconditioning, replacement components, reassembly, lubrication, and performance testing. The team also supports both current and legacy equipment.

An inspection examines the gearbox’s internal and external condition to identify the cause and extent of damage. Technicians may evaluate gears, shafts, bearings, housings, seals, lubrication-related components, and other critical parts. The resulting service report documents the failure mechanism, required repairs, replacement-part needs, and recommended scope of work, giving your team a clear basis for repair decisions.

Often, yes. For obsolete or legacy equipment, Houston Pump & Gear can evaluate damaged or unavailable components and use reverse engineering, gear cutting, shaft manufacturing, precision machining, and refurbishment to support restoration. Components such as gears, shafts, and housings can be measured and recreated when original drawings or OEM replacements are difficult to obtain, avoiding an automatic full-equipment replacement.

Gearbox reverse engineering begins with careful measurement and analysis of the damaged, worn, or unavailable component. The team assesses dimensions, material requirements, fit, and operating function to develop requirements for a replacement. Depending on the application, this can include gears, shafts, housings, or other precision parts. It is especially valuable for legacy units without accessible OEM documentation.

After reassembly, repaired and overhauled gearboxes undergo performance testing and quality verification. This step helps confirm the unit is functioning at the expected performance level before it returns to service. Testing follows completion of the repair work, including installed reconditioned or replacement components, and provides an important final check that supports reliable operation in demanding industrial applications.

Yes. Houston Pump & Gear evaluates worn or damaged components to determine whether reconditioning is a practical option. Precision machining, metal spray shaft restoration, refurbishment, and dimensional repair may restore suitable parts rather than requiring automatic replacement. This approach can help control repair costs and extend equipment life while ensuring the selected repair method matches the component’s condition and operational requirements.
