One of the solutions HMC can offer is to provide rebanding to your used gear. HMC removes the old gear rim area and replaces it with a vacuum degassed medium alloy forged ring. By utilizing current technology improvements to the mechanical properties and wear characteristics of the steel we are able to offer improved service life.
The gear is then recut or reground using the latest in CNC machine tool technology. Using the existing gear core saves in material costs and also reduces lead times.
HMC’s rebands continue to be successful. In fact, they carry the same warranties as our competitor’s new gears.
Rebanding gives your gear another life, allowing it to provide another round of service.
Reconditioning large gears is one of HMC’s specialties. It is possible to recondition gears, even after years of wear. This process is particularly beneficial today because of the significant investment level and lead-time new gears take to manufacture.
The first step is to evaluate your used gear to determine if it is a candidate for reconditioning. A full NDT examination of the gear is used to insure it is a viable candidate. A full set of inspection documents are provided along with the as-manufactured runout readings that will be used during the installation and alignment.
The gear is stress relieved in our oven to eliminate any residual stresses that have accumulated over the years of service. With the latest in CNC grinding and inspection technology, HMC is able to recut/regrind/requalify gears to a higher AGMA quality than the original part.
