Winch and windlass gearboxes are opened, cleaned, gear teeth inspected for wear and pitting, bearings renewed and reassembled with correct backlash and lubrication.

Electric & Hydraulic Drives

Electric motors are dismantled, cleaned, insulation tested and — where required — rewound. Hydraulic motors and pumps are overhauled with pressure testing and control valve service.

Warping Head & Chain Wheel

Warping heads, chain wheels and gypsy heads are inspected for wear, refurbished by machining or weld build-up and returned to specification, ensuring safe cable and chain handling.
