Gearbox Repair Specialists You Can Trust

Industrial gearbox repair may include disassembly, cleaning, inspection, failure analysis, component reconditioning or replacement, precision machining, reassembly, lubrication, and performance testing. The exact scope is based on the equipment’s condition and the cause of failure. Houston Pump & Gear works with industrial gearboxes, including helical, bevel, worm, planetary, speed increasers, and reduction drives.

A gearbox inspection evaluates internal and external components such as gears, shafts, bearings, housings, seals, and lubrication systems. The findings are used to identify the failure mechanism and prepare a service report describing needed repairs, replacement parts, and recommended scope of work. This diagnostic approach helps customers make informed repair decisions before work proceeds.

Yes. Houston Pump & Gear supports repair and restoration of older industrial gearboxes when OEM support, drawings, or replacement components are difficult to obtain. Depending on the equipment, the work may involve reverse engineering, gear cutting, shaft manufacturing, precision machining, component refurbishment, and testing to help return legacy equipment to service.

Houston Pump & Gear offers 24/7 emergency industrial repair capabilities for critical equipment failures and unexpected downtime. Emergency support is intended to help with rapid assessment, repair planning, equipment pickup, and expedited repair coordination where practical. Customers can discuss the failed equipment and operating situation to determine the appropriate response and next steps.

Damaged or worn components may be evaluated for reconditioning rather than automatically replaced. Available approaches can include machining, refurbishment, metal spray, shaft restoration, precision fabrication, or manufacturing replacement components using original specifications or reverse-engineered requirements. The suitable method depends on the component’s condition, dimensions, and role within the gearbox.

Yes. Performance testing forms part of the repair process for repaired and overhauled gearboxes. After reassembly, the equipment is tested to help verify that it is functioning properly and operating at the expected performance level before being returned to service. Testing results help support a clear handoff to the customer’s maintenance or operations team.
