    KESSLER SPINDLES ABUSIVE PRICES

    hello!!

    First of all to say I write in this forum for the first time, my english is no very good (in spain is very common) I do apologize in advance.

    I work in spain as technician, my company market CNC machines, lathes, milling chines, plasma...and my job is repair them.
    I consult this forum for a long time, I have lots of problems in my job and sometimes I find the solution here.
    From time to time we have problems with Kessler spindles and motors, normally we send it to kessler for repair them, but we are tired of their abusive prices, we have the feeling kessler is robbing us, so we are looking for alternatives.
    Do you know any company be able to repair spindles from Kessler?

    Thank you in advance.

    Your English is better than many people in Canada.

    I am familiar with Kessler (used in our DMG macines). I also find that their prices are extremely high. I have disassembled one spindle for bearing replacement, and the spindle repair company that I use also repaired one for me. Let me say this, these spindles are badly designed. For the money they want, it's robbery. They claim that 18000-r is possible. It is, but for less than 5 minutes, then overheat. I know of a place here in the Toronto area that can rebuild them, but he doesn't like them. If you want, I can give you the name, but I don't think it makes sense to send the spindle over seas to repair.
    Good luck in your search

    its pending on what type motors you need..
    try to contact a company like fanuc..

    if something german, that must be half sized and double priced..

    also, if you work for a company, then I think your company could establish a shop for repairing those spindles.. not only saving money on the repair, but saving time...

    you need to disassembling the unit, and skf has your bearing.. you can identify of the size, or take it the closest skf store..
    if no store close send picture to skf , with dimensions..
