Part Repair & Sourcing

Conveyor Motor Repair

Drum, roller and geared conveyor motors, tested under load.

  • 7-day standard turnaround
  • 12-month warranty
  • Free UK-wide collection

Faults we see most

  • Bearing noise, or a collapsed or seized bearing
  • Motor running hot, or drawing more current than its neighbours
  • Intermittent running, or failing to start under load
  • Control IC or motor drive electronics failure on integrated units
  • Gearbox noise, backlash or oil loss
  • Inconsistent speed between adjacent drives

How a repair is proven before it comes back

Nothing is signed off on a power-up. Every unit in this category goes through:

  • Tested under load using the appropriate controller
  • Direction, speed consistency and system response confirmed visually and by measurement
  • Bearing condition verified after rebuild
  • Soak testing before release

Board-level rework is carried out by IPC7711 and IPC7721 certified technicians working to ISO 9001:2015, and the test evidence comes back with the unit.

How a repair actually runs

Four stages, one point of contact throughout. You deal with us; we deal with the workshop.

  1. We collect

    Tell us what has failed and where it is. Collection is arranged across the UK at no charge, and the unit is booked in against your account with its serial, its symptoms and who reported them.

  2. We diagnose and quote

    The unit is bench-tested to confirm the reported fault before anyone opens it, then stripped to component level. You get a fixed quote and an honest verdict — including when replacement is the better buy.

  3. We repair

    Board-level rework is carried out by IPC-7711/7721 certified technicians working to ISO 9001. Failed components are replaced with tested equivalents, not bodged around.

  4. We prove it, then return it

    Nothing ships on a continuity check. Units are soak tested, load tested and exercised against manufacturer software, and come back with the test evidence and a 12-month warranty.

Common questions

Is repairing conveyor motors worthwhile at volume?

Yes, and volume is exactly where it pays. A large distribution site runs hundreds of near-identical drive units, so a repair route turns a recurring capital replacement into a predictable maintenance cost.

It also builds a failure history. Once you know which units fail, where, and how often, you can start attacking the cause rather than replacing the symptom.

Can you handle regular batch volumes?

Yes — batch flow is the normal pattern for conveyor drives. Sites typically send failed units in on a regular cycle and draw from a repaired pool, which removes the replacement lead time from the equation entirely.

Got a unit that needs looking at?

Send the make, model and what it is doing. You will get a straight answer on whether repair is the right call.

Tell us what has failed. You will get an honest answer on whether it is worth repairing — including when it is not.

What needs repairing

The fault as it presents, and whether the line is down. A sentence or two is plenty.
