Water jet ball screws need regular service that goes beyond manufacturer preventive maintenance.
Most CNC metal-working machines tend to loosen up with age and production hours. It is very common to see water jets with only 4,000 to 6,000 hours on them showing “hole out-of-round” problems. This is not a machinery quality problem; it is usually caused a ball screw assembly worn from abrasive cutting effluents (like sand if you have a damaged or missing cover) or moisture that is compromising the integrity of the motion system.
Unless you want to pay for expensive replacement parts (most customers don’t!), regular lubrication isn’t enough. A clean, flush and inspection every 2-3 years (more often if you run 2+ shifts), will keep your ball screw motion system in peak performance. We’ll clean the motion system and inspect the ball screw for wear issues- helping you to avoid unexpected down time and extending the life of your ball screw.
On-site water jet ball screw repair services ensure the least downtime and the least lost production.
Even with travel expenses, our prices are lower than most CNC ball screw repair service depots. And, we’re an affordable alternative to OEM replacement! See our Cost Examples page for a sample comparison and contact us for a custom service quote.
