Shaft & Journal Repair

Shaft and Journal Repair

Productivity losses and repair costs resulting from shaft or journal scoring or fracturing can be catastrophic. That's why, 24-hours-a-day; seven-days-a-week, our team of world-class machining specialists stands ready to provide immediate, expert on-site response. Field System Machining is a worldwide leader and pioneer in Stationary Journal Machining, Squirrel Cage Machining, Journal Squirrel Machining and Journal Lathe Machining, specializing in grinding and polishing of journals, collector rings, thrust faces, hydrogen seals, trunnion repair, trunnion resurfacing, trunnion machining, as well as repairing turbine journals, shaft journals, shaft bearings, and FD-ID Fan Shafts.

Specializing in grinding and polishing of journals, collector rings, thrust faces, hydrogen seals, turbine journals, shaft journals, ID fan shafts, OD Fan Shafts

Specializing in:

Tooling, Grinding and Polishing of Journals, Collector Rings, Thrust Faces, Hydrogen Seals. (Applicable to Turbines, Generators, Motors, Pumps, Drive Shafts, & Propulsion Shafts).
Welding & Reconditioning of damaged or worn shafts.
Reverse Engineering of old Shafts and Manufacturing of new replacement shafts and components.
The most advanced shaft &journal restoration process available to industry today!

Downtime Reduction:
Easily the most important advance in modern machining technology, portable stationary machining and honing permits fast, accurate tolerance and finish restoration without the crippling delays and staggering costs of conventional disassembly, off-site repair and assembly:

By simply rotating around your shaft/journal within the unit, our Stationary Journal Machine quickly restores straight, round or concentric conditions to within 0.0005" final machine tolerances from virtually any position.

Stationary Honing then quickly polishes surfaces to a 16 RMS finish-guaranteed!

In addition

Because absolutely no shaft rotation is required risk of journal cogging, oil climb or bearing damage is eliminated.
Virtually no plant crane or rigging assistance is needed.
Minimal lay down space is required

And because precision tolerances greatly improve equipment longevity and performance, we take every conceivable precaution to ensure results that consistently meet or exceed OEM specifications, including the design and manufacture of one-of-a-kind measuring devices.
