Replacement of gearboxes
We recently carried out the replacement of gearboxes on a screw conveyor.
This was included in a maintenance and repair program being undertaken by our customer to get the plant operational again after a period of non-use.
This operation involved the use of a crane. This was because the gearboxes were outside of the factory and there was no overhead lifting equipment and the gearboxes were situated up a couple of levels on the access walkways.
When replacement of gearboxes need to be carried on your machinery, talk to the team at Better Engineering.

We weld using the following methods
- MIG – used in the workshop as the most cost effective fabrication method for mild steel, stainless steel and aluminium components.
- TIG – used with lighter gauge stainless steel and aluminium fabrications but can also be needed for welding aluminium castings, etc.
- Electrode – used for welding situations where the area to be welded can’t be easily cleaned or for site welding where wind conditions can make MIG and TIG welding impractical. Also used for welding the likes of cast iron.
- Silver Solder – commonly used for brass fittings, copper tube, etc and is also useful for joining dissimilar metals such as brass to stainless steel.
