Shaft repair and regeneration: when replacement is not required

In today's production environment, cost-effectiveness and reliability are crucial. The cost of a new shaft can be several times higher than a professional repair, and production time is critical for continuous production. That is why the shaft regeneration service from Dessa-NV is not a compromise, but a strategic solution.

 

🔄 What is shaft regeneration?

This is a comprehensive procedure for restoring the shaft to a new condition, including:

  1. Defects: a thorough analysis of the degree of wear, rod condition, rubber grip, and geometry.

     

  2. Mechanical processing: removal of the old coating, grinding or turning of the rod, checking the alignment.

     

  3. Retreading: application of a new elastomeric layer (NBR, EPDM, SBR, PU, silicone, etc.).

     

  4. Curing: Depending on the type of material, either in an autoclave or continuously.

     

  5. Grinding and balancing: returning accuracy to 0.01 mm, shaping profiles (bomb, saddle, cone).

     

  6. Quality control: checking roughness, geometry, runout and adhesion.

     

🛠 When should you choose repair over replacement?

  • The shaft axis is in satisfactory condition (or requires minimal straightening)

     

  • Wear or damage to the coating only

     

  • It is difficult or time-consuming to produce an analogue

     

  • It is necessary to restore a non-standard shaft (dimensions, profile)

     

  • Quick deadlines are important

     

  • The specifics of the shaft (geometry, fit) must be preserved

     

📊 Savings and efficiency

Shaft refurbishment is up to 5 times cheaper than manufacturing a new one. But the main thing is to minimise production downtime. We restore a shaft in 7 to 15 days, depending on the complexity. For standard shafts, it is even faster.
