A tough case:
Boring spindle of a Scharmann FB,
2700 mm long, Ø130 mm.
The tool holder rotated during machining –
cold welding in the taper, spindle surface damaged.
The result? Declared a total loss by the manufacturer.
Delivery time for a replacement: 46 weeks.
But the machine must be running by June 10, 2025 – not 2026!
✅ Our Solution:
Taper re-machined
SK50 taper bushing inserted
Spindle externally ground
Bushing manufactured with oversize fit
The Result:
Saved 38 weeks
Reduced costs by 75%
Machine back in operation on time
