Gearboxes have many moving parts like gears, bearings, shafts, clutches and couplings. Each gearbox component is inspected individually for functional integrity. Gearing can be helical, bevel and/or worm, which are used independently or as a combination as a speed reducer or speed increaser in a gearbox. If your gearbox is making noise, vibrating, leaking or […]

Smaller cooling towers are found at hospitals and universities. Most cooling tower systems have a motor driving a propeller shaft coupled to a gearbox. Some common problems […]
CMT offers industrial gearbox repairs
Many gearbox designs are splash lubricated and, because of this, some internal components that help rotational shaft speeds do not receive enough amounts of lubrication. Design, fabrication and installation of oil reservoirs containing lubricant ensures bearings will be properly lubricated while the gearbox is functioning. CMT can do all industrial gearbox repairs including gear installation, […]
Large gearbox assembly rebuilt ahead of schedule
CMT was recently asked to rebuild a large multi-shaft gearbox assembly for a regional pipe mill. CMT’s Field Service technicians removed the gearbox from the customer’s site and transported it to the shop for evaluation and rebuild. The gearbox unit was dismantled, cleaned, inspected and then rebuilt using new bearings and other components. Some additional […]
CMT already geared up for any industrial gearbox needs
CMT’s gearbox rebuild capabilities extend to various power transmission assemblies. This rotary arm shaft is used in the production of pipe, and has been refurbished by CMT. There are five individual gear assemblies attached to the main shaft. All were carefully rebuilt using new bearings and shafts. The gear assemblies were then assembled and aligned […]
Fixing motors and armatures is CMT’s specialty
This 1674 HP DC motor was recently remanufactured by CMT for a world-class pipe manufacturing mill. Also pictured is the armature, or rotating element from an identical motor.
