Retrofit spindles from EMAG: Full performance - maximum stability

EMAG offers a comprehensive service for used machine spindles. This ranges from a flexible repair program with various options to precision testing prior to commissioning. Many spindle types are available in the EMAG warehouse for quick replacement.

The spindle - an indispensable component of machining quality

Many EMAG machines have so-called pick-up spindles: The spindle picks up the component from the automation (shuttle, belt, etc.) and guides it into the work area, where machining starts - with speed and precision. This assembly is critical to guaranteeing machining quality and is subject to a certain amount of wear.

Repair program with options

In this context, the "Spindle Assembly" area within EMAG Retrofit is particularly important. Among other things, it offers a comprehensive repair program for customers' own spindles, using only new parts or reconditioned components in original quality. You can choose between the “Basic Repair” or “Full Repair” service packages.

Comprehensive audit

Subsequently, a recorded initial commissioning at EMAG - before delivery to the customer - ensures maximum quality and process reliability. The grease distribution run within the spindle is checked and a precision run-in cycle and endurance run are carried out in accordance with EMAG standards. The result equals the quality of a new spindle.

Replacement spindles from stock

In addition, EMAG guarantees its customers a high speed, for example in emergencies after a collision. As a result, the assembly must be replaced quickly to avoid long downtimes. For this purpose, EMAG has a central spare parts warehouse that stocks many standard assemblies such as main spindles and turret units.
