Chemineer Gearbox Repairs

Recognised across North America and Europe for their industrial mixing equipment, Chemineer offers businesses systems to help with their agitation solutions. To date, their products are used in a broad range of process industries, from the water industry to the pharmaceutical industries, as well as the oil and gas market.

At Highfield Gears, we're well acquainted with Chemineer's applications and, more specifically, the agitator gearboxes that help power their top, bottom, and side-entering configurations. Their agitator gearbox program, while complex, is something we can help with when problems arise.

From reconditioning worn parts to refurbishing entire gearboxes and taking old gearbox designs into the 21st century, without the extortionate outlay. We can use our knowledge of gearboxes to help you with your Chemineer gearbox.

Being based in Huddersfield allows us to help businesses across the UK, as well as further afield in Europe. Working with global corporations such as Ineos and Tata Steel has made us acutely aware of the need to provide cost-effective industrial gearbox repair solutions. In addition, our work with different gearboxes from global manufacturers such as DB Santasalo, Flender, Radicon, Sumitomo, Renold, Chemineer, Siemens and Hansen has provided us with unrivalled knowledge that we use to keep solutions effective, and costs down.

So, if you have agitation applications that need repairing or reconditioning then get in touch with our gearbox service team by phone on 01484 531 010 or email us at sales@hgi-uk.co.uk.

How We Can Help Fix, Upgrade, Or Recondition All Types Of Chemineer Agitator Gearboxes

The way we fix, upgrade or recondition all of the industrial gearboxes we come across involves a thorough inspection, rigorous consultation, and effective, bespoke solutions.

For Chemineer agitation applications we will listen to your problems and apply decades of previous experience to ensure that the problem that you come to us with is fixed the first time around. However, as well as this, we’ll go beyond just fixing the problem and take proactive, preventive steps so that any small problems are spotted and fixed. Our team will also draw on their industry knowledge to offer advice and suggestions about how best to extend the life of your Chemineer applications.

Working with Highfield Gears means you’re working with a one-stop-shop that does everything, from making individual parts from scratch to testing and analysis. We have invested heavily in the latest tools, including CNC machines so that we never have to rely on third parties to supply us with parts that may not be to the high standards that you, or our team at Highfield Gears, expect. These in-house capabilities allow us to track quality and document the entire process so that when your agitator gearbox leaves our Huddersfield headquarters, everyone is happy that the work that has been done has been completed to an incredibly high standard.

Our Previous Work With Chemineer Transmissions

Since we were founded way back in 1927, we've worked on gearboxes from a comprehensive range of manufacturers, and Chemineer is no exception. We understand the importance of their agitator gearbox and the need to rely on them to carry out key industrial mixing procedures.

Having worked with businesses who rely on, for example, the HS agitator gearboxes, we’ve seen the impact that unplanned downtime and maintenance issues can have on businesses, the reliance on these products means that any problem can bring standard business practices to a standstill.

These detrimental problems are one of the reasons why we set up a 24/7 emergency gearbox repair service that can be on hand to help any time of the day or night. Typically, problems occur at the most inconvenient times, be it in the middle of the night, or during a busy period where orders need to be filled to a deadline. Thankfully, our emergency service means that a team of experts are ready to get in there and fix your gearbox at two am on Friday night, or five am on a Monday morning, for example, saving you time, and allowing your business to carry out its functions.

The Importance Of Well Maintained Gear Drives On Mixers

One of the many notable characteristics of Chemineer's range of rotating mixers and static mixers is their broad use of applications. From the fermentation industry to the pulp and paper market and biotech sector, a mixer from Chemineer can be used in all of them. In many instances, they are vital to ensuring that a delicate dilution application, and other processes, can be carried out safely and effectively. However, the Chemineer mixers are only as good as the gearbox that is powering them.

Therefore, the need for regular servicing and maintenance of your gearbox is essential to ensuring your mixers are functioning properly. At Highfield Gears, we know the importance of properly maintained transmission units and will work with you to keep everything running smoothly. Our knowledge of gearboxes is matched by very few and we understand that your mixer is vital to keeping your business ticking over.

If problems are left to manifest, let’s say the dry-well seals are rotting, or the lubrication systems aren’t providing sufficient fluids, your maintenance costs can skyrocket. Or, even worse, you may need an overhaul on gearbox components which puts a stop to your processes altogether.

These problems are heightened around submersible mixers such as agitators. They are heightened because your gearbox is very close to dangerous and volatile liquids that are being mixed. As a result, seals must be regularly checked and vibration analysis has to be undertaken, especially if the mixer is in a noisy environment.

This need for maintenance and care can seem daunting, especially when there are hundreds of over things to be getting on with. By working with Highfield Gears, you can rest easy knowing there are technical specialists monitoring your Chemineer agitators, impellers, and auxiliaries. We use years of experience to keep maintenance savings, and our manufacturing standards, high.

We also know that Chemineer offers a wide range of products. Be it their Prochem, Kenics, or Greerco range, they supply top-entry mixers in a variety of formats. This is why we provide a bespoke service to each Chemineer product. A one size fits all approach simply cannot be as effective as a considered, thorough plan that is based on the specific problem.

Who Are Chemineer?

What started as an attic office, and basement research and development lab has since grown exponentially and has led Chemineer to become one of the leading lights in the industrial mixing industry. Founded in 1952, Chemineer supplies businesses with a compressive range of impellers, auxiliary equipment, and lubrication systems, along with their rotating mixers. All of this helps optimise solutions so that businesses can create the configurations they need to achieve their industrial mixing goals.

Chemineer has since been bought by NOV (National Oilwell Varco) Inc who provide solutions for organisations in the oil and gas sector.

In 2016, David Brown merged with Santasalo to become one of the largest mechanical power transmission brands in the world. They operate in 28 global locations with over 1,100 employees creating gearboxes all year round.
