Grinder Rebuilds for Greater Value & Longer Machine Life

A grinder rebuild can extend the life of your machine and bring it to better-than-new performance levels.

A rebuild is exactly what it sounds like: the grinder is dissembled, worn parts thrown away and good assemblies kept. It’s more than a retrofit, in which certain systems are upgraded, but not quite a remanufacture, which usually includes additional systems beyond those originally in place.

A grinder rebuild is a great way to recapture the value remaining in the machine’s base while boosting productivity and part quality without going to the additional time and expense of buying a new machine.

When GCH  Machinery rebuilds a grinder, all ways, slides and moving surfaces are precision hand scraped and flaked, and all spindles are ceramic coated or chrome plated and ground, while all bearings, roller, ball and angular contact are replaced with new matching precision sets.

A professional grinder rebuild by GCH Machinery also includes new:

  • Precision-scraped Filmatic bearings that are matched to the new spindle surfaces 
  • Hydraulic valves  
  • Steel pipes, hydraulic hoses and fittings
  • Hydraulic pumps, filters and motors
  • Electrical, motor starter and fuse blocks 
  • Panel disconnects, wiring and transformers 
  • NEMA 12 electrical enclosures 
  • SLC, PLC and CNC controls 
  • Control console color CRT and push buttons (optional) 
  • Auto lubrication controls, new lube blocks, steel lines and fitting 
  • Motion control devices, servos and steppers 
  • Precision ground ball screws and nuts 
  • Grinder tooling 
  • Automation for loaders and unloaders 
  • Gages for in process and post process 
  • Auto wheel balancers 
  • Constant surface footage 

Special load-monitoring devices are included, as are complete AutoCAD schematics (electrical, hydraulic and pneumatic). GCH Machinery also offers a completely re-tooled set-up and SPC and CPK run-off on the customer’s part as part of our turnkey services, backed by a one-year warranty.
