Gearbox solutions, from emergency response to regular maintenance


Efficiency is a priority both for inland vessels and seagoing vessels. As well as short layovers and turnaround times, down times or delays caused by a gearbox defect should be kept as short as possible. BRAUER keeps these requirements in mind when performing all services involving gearbox technology in the shipping industry. 

We will perform a short service for you on-site, e.g. in a gearbox emergency, in just as professional a manner as for regular gearbox inspections, and ensure that your drive unit is functioning smoothly.

Instantly on the spot in emergencies

Our company is available at any time for a gearbox emergency - 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. This applies for both suspected defects and gearbox breakdowns. We always act quickly to keep the financial impact caused by gearbox problems low. Our service technicians will use your description of the problem to ensure they have the right equipment handy and / or carry out a damage analysis, and offer the following, depending on the situation: 

  • Emergency repairs on our premises
  • Replacement parts to quickly help the gearbox function again
  • On-site repairs
     
Overhauls – always flexible and professional, regardless of manufacturer

BRAUER Maschinentechnik AG will offer you a repair service for each and every gearbox type and manufacturer. This will enable you to benefit from our particularly high flexibility, and you can be certain that we will give you the right solution for your gearbox problem. Documentation for the gearbox is also not necessary. Our employees possess the relevant experience and knowledge for creating the construction drawings required for maintenance work, and the relevant parts. 

As a result of the repair work, you will receive a gearbox that is functionally as good as new, fits exactly into your system and fulfils all your requirements.

Preventative gearbox inspection for all ship drives and shipping industry structures


As well as overhaul work and emergency repairs, we can also carry out preventative measures for you as a gearbox specialist. Not only will this save you the high costs that can arise from a total breakdown, but the running costs for the entire lifespan of the gearbox will also be kept down. 

Services during the inspection include:

  • Estimating gearbox loads
  • Determining breakdown risks
  • Assessing the entire condition of the gearbox, taking into account the system situation
  • Inspection and assessment of toothing contact patterns
  • Inspection of gearbox lubrication, including filter inspection
  • Oil analysis if required
  • Visual inspection for safety-relevant defects
     

With the help of the findings, we can give you treatment recommendations and take over the exchange of defective gearbox parts if necessary. 

You'll be well-prepared with BRAUER Maschinentechnik AG, be it for ships, lifts or other units. We know the requirements of this sector of the industry well, and focus on the highest quality, precision and speed for all jobs.
