Rexnord opens gearbox repair, remanufacturing facility
March 31, 2011Rexnord Industries opened a new 29,000-sq.-ft. gearbox repair and remanufacturing facility in Salt Lake City. The facility is part of the company’s Falk RENEW Prager product services, which repairs or rebuilds gearboxes of all makes, brands and sizes.
In the mining industry, gearboxes and other power transmission products play a critical role in facility output, productivity and profit generation. Rexnord’s new repair facility is in the center of an 800-mile radius of large area mines, including coal, copper, gold, silver, as well as other cement and aggregate operations.
The Salt Lake City operation has the capability to lift 50,000-lb. gearboxes. The location also performs disassembly and a full inspection of the drive’s housing and rotating elements. Complete gearbox rebuilds are available, in addition to reverse engineering and custom unit capabilities. Technicians are available upon request for on-site repairs and troubleshooting.
To introduce the new facility to the Salt Lake City area, Rexnord will hold a three-day open house on April 19-21, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day. Visitors can tour the facility and learn more about day-to-day operations. All attendees will have the opportunity to win a Richard Petty Driving Experience, which gives thrill-seekers the chance to ride or drive a NASCAR racecar.
The Salt Lake City facility joins additional RENEW locations near Milwaukee and New Orleans.
