BDS Rebuild Lead Time:
2 Weeks
Senergy Industrial Solutions has worked with Bearing & Drive Systems and Bearing Manufacturing Company on several projects. All projects have gone smoothly but the most impressive job involved 2 pinion bearings and 2 special OEM Housings.
These 10” ID bearings failed and the plant had a very short window of time to get them replaced and back in service because our plant shut down. The OEM had a 12-14 week lead time.
The crew at Bearing & Drives and Bearing Manufacturing broke down the failed units and provided the plant with very a detailed failure analysis. After reviewing the data collected and considering the application parameters, several changes were recommended by both the BDS and BMC team.
The following modifications were made in house by BDS and BMC:
All this happened in a 2-week timeframe which was very expedited. The modified and assembled units were couriered to their shop and installed in the required time frame.
"BDS is our go-to bearing repair shop because of their ability to provide extremely valuable technical support coupled with master workmanship," said Mel Young at Senergy Industrial Solutions
Now, the bearings run cooler and smoother than before and the modifications and overall repair jobs were exceptional, according to Young.

A customer reached out looking for help locating a TORRINGTON B9362G triple ring bearing that was used at a Georgia Pacific paper mill in a deflection compensation roll.
The customer's search for this specific triple ring bearing was falling short because it was not in stock anywhere, and as a result, they were feeling pressured on time and the stress that comes with finding a solution.
Since no stock was available anywhere, we worked with the customer to instead use a remanufactured bearing that we had ready to go at our facility in Cleveland, OH.
We shipped the bearing to Valmet (3rd party that rebuilds large rolls for paper mill customers) and the customer got what they needed delivered in 2 days, so they could get back up and running to alleviate extended downtime. Even though the bearing was remanufactured, BDS still honored a year warranty on it (same as buying new).
