A growing supplier base
New plants, new machines
Bloomington-Normal’s manufacturing has grown fast, and new plants often start with new equipment and a small maintenance team. When something goes wrong outside that team’s experience, they need a partner who can step in.
We repair robots, PLCs, presses, CNC machines and the conveyors that tie them together. We work alongside your maintenance staff, explain what we find, and leave you with a written summary.

Rebuilds
Rebuilding spindles and servo motors for Bloomington-Normal manufacturers
When a spindle’s bearings are done, a repair won’t hold. We confirm it with vibration, runout and temperature readings, then pull the spindle, handle the full rebuild, and reinstall and align it on your machine in Bloomington-Normal. You get the readings, the lead time and the price before anything comes apart.
Servo motors get the same treatment. When a motor has a failing bearing, a wet or damaged encoder, a brake that won’t hold or worn seals, we rebuild it instead of making you wait on a new one, then reinstall it and tune the axis.
Details are on our spindle rebuilds and servo motor rebuilds pages, and a tech is one call away at 773-692-0269.

Example service call
Vision system rejecting good parts
The call
A supplier in Normal had a vision inspection station on an assembly line that started rejecting good parts, backing up the line.
What we did
- Phone. Sudden false rejects usually come from lighting, focus or a moved camera, so we asked what had changed on the line.
- On site. A light had dimmed, and the camera mount had been bumped during a changeover.
- Fix. Replaced the light, re-aimed and locked the camera, and re-taught the inspection.
- Check. Ran known good and bad parts through the station.
The result. Good parts passed, bad parts were caught, and the line ran at full rate again.
A typical example of how these calls go, written to show our process. It isn’t a specific customer.

Maintenance for automated lines
Automated lines fail in small ways first: a weak sensor, a loose bracket, a robot cable starting to wear. A maintenance plan finds those before they stop production.
We back up robot and PLC programs every visit.
