We develop and manufacture high-precision special bearing systems and precision components for aircraft engines, helicopters, and space applications as well as for special applications with high performance requirements (e.g. turbochargers) or applications with the highest possible reliability requirements (e.g. medical technology). In addition, we offer our customers a bearing diagnosis and reconditioning service, enabling them to benefit from lower life cycle costs and the same high level of reliability as for new bearings.

MRO – reconditioning of bearings

Reconditioning and repair of engine bearings

Reconditioning and repair of engine bearings

Our reconditioning service can help you to considerably reduce your overhaul costs because we only replace components that actually need to be replaced by new parts. Our certified reconditioning processes ensure that the remaining components acquire the full performance capability of corresponding new parts.

Schaeffler Aerospace holds many official reconditioning approvals directly from engine manufacturers and is certified as a manufacturing, reconditioning, and development organization by the aviation authorities. Our highly qualified team of experienced test and application engineers will be glad to help you in the event of bearing damage. We are often able to identify approaches for preventing bearing damage that occurs during operation (e.g. due to contamination, overloading, insufficient lubrication or inappropriate handling), which we would like to discuss with you in order to increase the reliability of your bearing systems and ultimately your engines. We can also offer customer-specific training for your team.
