When your CNC machine’s spindle shows signs of wear—vibration, reduced accuracy, or unusual noise—you face a key decision: replace it or rebuild it? For many, rebuilding offers a cost-effective way to restore like-new performance while saving 50-70% compared to replacement costs.
CNC Machining
In CNC (Computer Numerical Control) operations, spindles are key to precision, speed, and stability. They drive cutting tools and are critical in industries like woodworking, metalworking, automotive, and aerospace manufacturing.
Precision and efficiency are vital in aerospace manufacturing, where components must meet strict standards. At the heart of this process are CNC spindles, which power machining systems to deliver accuracy, reliability, and high performance. For aerospace manufacturers, understanding spindle types is key to optimizing production
Boring mill machines are essential tools for industries that demand precision and efficiency when handling large-scale parts. From automotive and aerospace to heavy equipment manufacturing, these machines deliver accuracy and reliability for producing high-quality components.
Turning center CNC machines are essential for modern manufacturing, offering precision, efficiency, and adaptability in industries like automotive and aerospace. Brands like DMG Mori, Mazak, Okuma, and Doosan lead the way with innovative solutions.
When machines run smoothly, productivity thrives. But spindle noise, vibration, or overheating can disrupt operations, reduce precision, and lead to costly repairs. Diagnosing these issues early is critical—not just to maintain performance but to extend equipment life and avoid downtime.
Choosing the right spindle motor and control system is crucial for your CNC operation. Two industry leaders, Fanuc and Siemens, dominate this space. Both have spent decades refining their technology, but which one is right for your needs?
Most people see dusty warehouses and cluttered shop floors as eyesores. Heather Alessi sees treasure maps. As the Sales Director for Motor City Spindle Repair, she’s built a career around hunting down the most overlooked assets in American manufacturing: broken CNC spindles sitting forgotten in wooden crates and deteriorating on factory floors.
When your CNC spindle fails, downtime costs money. Motor City Spindle Repair understands this reality, which is why we’ve built something unique in the industry: a dedicated team of mobile experts who travel across the Midwest and beyond, providing free consultations to evaluate your cnc machine tool spindles via our Vibration Analysis Program and offer pickup and evaluation services for broken cnc spindles to keep your cnc production equipment moving.
