High Speed Spindle Moulders and Routers
The components fitted in high speed manufacturing equipment normally have precision fits and tolerances. Bearing and lubricant condition, shaft and housing fits and tolerances, rotating component straightness and residual unbalance influence high speed machine performance.
Qualtex service expertise ensures that repairs carried out on these machines comply with these special engineering requirements. After repairs and checks have been completed in our dedicated pressurised, temperature controlled clean room, the rotors and spindles are dynamically balanced to ensure vibration is reduced to minimum levels required for trouble free operation and the production of a high grade end product. Balancing of the spindles is generally carried out in the workshop facility.
Following the precision rebuild and balancing of a spindle, the spindle is properly run-in on our purpose built test bed. This is a critical process that maximises bearing and grease life, and minimises the potential risk of a catastrophic failure at start-up.
