Hurco Spindle Repair & Grinding
Hurco Spindle Repair & Rebuilds
What we see most on Hurco spindles: older belt-driven machines come in with pulley and drawbar wear. Newer machines are more typical bearing failures. We rebuild, regrind, and rebalance across the Hurco platform — VMX series and VM series — with most jobs running 2–3 weeks and field troubleshooting where it can save a teardown.
Hurco Models We Support
Our Hurco work covers the full lineup. Whether the job is a precision bearing pack replacement, a full rebuild, or a regrind to restore tolerance, we handle:
- VMX series

How We Approach Hurco Spindle Work
Hurco work is one of the more straightforward calls in our queue — very common in smaller job shops where one machine may run ten different kinds of work in a week. What we focus on is the spindle condition itself: older belt-driven machines come in with pulley and drawbar wear. Newer machines are more typical bearing failures.
