RSGetriebe Service
Wide Variety of Services
Anywhere, Anytime
A wide variety of services complete the business activities of RSGetriebe. Whether you need maintenance, appraisal, repair or modernization – the experts in Sonthofen are there for you with know-how gained in the course of many decades. With a modernization by RSGetriebe, you can economically upgrade your gearboxes so that they are once again state-of-the-art.
Appraisal
Thorough Appraisal of all Gearboxes
In addition to routine gearbox maintenance and inspection, RSGetriebe also offers more thorough appraisals of gearboxes or gear trains. This is mainly done at the company’s facilities in Sonthofen. After dismantling, cleaning and a thorough visual appraisal, any further measures are discussed and implemented in cooperation with the customer.
Appraisal services at a glance:
- Check of the gearing geometry
- Gear train crack and hardness test
- Dimensional check of fits and shrink-fits
- Check of the instrumentation
A detailed appraisal report is drawn up, based on the test results, and a quote for the repair of the gearbox is submitted.
Modernization
An Economic Alternative to New Investment
The ever-increasing demands on modern plants do not necessarily mean that an existing gearbox has to be exchanged for a new one. RSGetriebe increases the output potential of your gearbox by means of modernization – an economic alternative to investment in a new gearbox.
The following modernisation options are available, among others:
- Exchange of gearing parts = increased output
- Exchange of bearings and sealing elements
- Cooling and lubrication optimization
- Retrofitting of various monitoring sensors

To ensure a long service life and low wear, RSGetriebe recommends regular maintenance of your gearboxes.

Potential problems are detected early and downtimes minimized.
RSGetriebe provides you with the following services:
- Oil change and oil analysis
- Vibration analyses

RSGetriebe would be happy to draw up an individual inspection and maintenance plan for you to find the best possible time to conduct maintenance measures and thus achieve an economic serviceable life of your gearboxes. Service contracts are also available.
Repair of Third-Party Gearboxes
Repairs of the Highest Quality, Irrespective of the Brand
RSGetriebe repairs and optimizes gearboxes of any make and model. All components are precisely measured in the quality control department. Then the necessary gearing and bearing calculations are made, followed by the preparation of design drawings. Spare parts for third-party gearboxes of the best quality can thus be produced, even without the original component drawings.
In addition, if economic repair is no longer possible, RSGetriebe will even rebuild gearboxes to the latest technological standards.
Spare Parts
Best Quality for the Entire Service Life of Your Plant
As a strong partner to its customers, RSGetriebe provides spare parts quickly and reliably. Many components are available from stock – or if necessary, they will be manufactured for you in-house. Just like the gearboxes, spare parts from RSGetriebe are also „Made in Germany“. They are tailor-made for your plant and meet the highest standards when it comes to quality and functionality.
