Hydraulic motor repairs

Posted by Tammy Soper on

Hydraulic motors are widely utilised in applications where the power source is a hydraulic system and electrical power is not viable or cost effective. These motors are useful because, despite their small size, they can withstand exceptionally high loads. Hydraulic repair services entail working on complex motors that necessitate a variety of skills. When your company requires hydraulically operated device repairs, turn to experts who understand these motors and efficient ways to extend their lives.


Services for Hydraulic Motor Repair

When companies send us their hydraulic motors for repair, we put them through a rigorous process to ensure that we make all necessary repairs and restorations. Our approach to repairs goes beyond simply replacing a broken component to revitalise and restore the entire hydraulic motor, extending its life and efficiency. Our procedure consists of the following steps:


  1. Dismantling

To begin, we must disassemble the motor to gain access to its numerous components. Our disassembly process is meticulously controlled to avoid harm to the parts and to ensure that everything is thoroughly examined. This disassembly and inspection of the motor's components assists our professionals in determining which parts require cleaning and restoration.


We inspect and may repair or replace the following components:


  • Gaskets, o-rings, and seals are examples of sealing components.
  • Screws, bolts, washers, and other fasteners are examples of hardware.
  • Gears, particularly those that have wear, backlash, or broken teeth
  • Shaft end oil seals

  1. Organizing

Following that, we clean and inspect each component. Removing oil accumulation from hydraulic motors that have fluid or oil constantly running over parts allows us to more closely analyse the condition of the motor parts. The interior of a hydraulic motor might be contaminated by hydraulic oil, fluid, or cleaning agents. Cleaning these impurities can minimise friction and enhance motor performance.


  1. Electronics Testing

Electronics that control motor function must be inspected and tested. This step allows the technician to pinpoint the source of motor problems. In some cases, the motor may only require electronics repairs to be operational again.

  1. Repair of Moving Parts

The continual movement of pistons and shafts can cause surface scoring over time. Our professionals have many options for removing the score. Minor pitting and scoring can be removed by honing or polishing on occasion. We can recoat the surface with chrome in more extreme circumstances.


We work to restore cylinders and any other contact points in the same way that we work to restore pistons and shafts. Damaged cylinders may require machining or replacement of broken shafts. Finally, for gear motors, we inspect the tooth condition and replace worn or damaged gears to restore operation.


  1. Replacing Worn Bearings and Seals All seals, bearings, and gaskets that show signs of wear will be replaced with new parts. These worn components can cause fluid leaks, reducing the efficiency of the entire motor operation.

  1. Fitting Tolerance Verification and Testing

Because hydraulic motors rely so heavily on pressure and flow, we must inspect fitting tolerances to guarantee the system can generate and sustain the necessary pressure. Pressure and specification tests up to 1,000 pounds per square inch (psi) pressure and 150 gallons per minute (gpm) flow are among the tests we perform.


We test the unit at a known rpm after replacing all of the restored parts to ensure it meets the proper torque and pressure requirements.


It is our mission to provide all our customers with a top quality service. We aim to give the best possible delivery service and charges with quality packaging. Goods are despatched either by standard postal service or, where required, by next day Courier service unless otherwise stated.
