“PDS repairs both main and scoring arbors at a fraction of the price of OEM replacement cost with a better-than-factory runout and upgraded bearing specifications,” explained Calvin Stiles, Market Development Manager for PDS. “PDS rebuilt saw arbors also solve runout issues with precision-face grinding and precise measuring in a micron/control room environment.”

The industries PDS serves include cabinet manufacturers, RTA furniture, cut-to-size, millwork, institutional casework, plastics fabricating, PCB and advanced materials cutting, flooring and board manufacturing plants.

In PDS’ saw arbor repair process, the saw arbors are disassembled, cleaned and evaluated. Critical surfaces are precision ground. Bearing and spacer stackups are measured. Upgraded bearings are specified and installed, then each unit receives final assembly, run-in, temperature, balance and vibration analysis to complete the repair. PDS also backs each rebuilt unit with a six-month warranty.

Since 1996, PDS has been the global leader in providing high-speed precision spindle motors, support and repairs for CNC machines in the wood, plastics, metal manufacturing and robotics industries.
