At Boremill Engineering, we specialise in the refurbishment of industrial gearboxes — the vital components responsible for transmitting power from engines or electric motors to critical machinery. Whether you're dealing with heavy-duty mining equipment or plant machinery, a worn-out gearbox can cause downtime and loss of torque. That’s where our precision engineering and expert refurbishment services come in.
What is a gearbox refurbishment, and why is it critical?
Gearboxes are used to adjust speed and increase torque in mechanical systems. Over time, internal components such as bearings, gears, and seals wear out under the stress of continuous use. Refurbishment restores these systems to optimal condition, preventing catastrophic failure and extending equipment life — often at a fraction of the cost of replacement.
Our refurbishment process – precision from strip to fit
At Boremill, gearbox refurbishment starts with a full strip, inspect, and report service. We identify wear, pitting, misalignment, and other forms of damage. From there, we refurbish or remanufacture components in-house using our coded welders and high-capacity lifting equipment, ensuring flawless reassembly and peak operational performance.
Industries we serve
We’ve refurbished gearboxes for mines, processing plants, Sasol operations, and more. These gearboxes power crushers, conveyors, and pumps – equipment that must function at full torque to meet production targets. Because our quality conforms to ISO 9000 standards, we’re trusted by companies that demand consistent and certifiable results.
