The Radicon Specialist in the Midwest
Expert Radicon gear drive repair — including legacy David Brown Radicon units. IMR services all Radicon product lines with full in-house machining and gear cutting.
Radicon gear drives, originally manufactured by David Brown, are found in steel mills, mining, and heavy processing plants. Many Radicon units are legacy equipment where OEM parts are no longer available. IMR's in-house gear cutting capability ensures we can manufacture replacement gears to original specifications.
Radicon Units We Rebuild
We work on the full range of Radicon equipment — from legacy units to current production models.
Our Radicon Rebuild Process
Every Radicon rebuild follows a documented process — from teardown through load test. No shortcuts, no guesswork.
Teardown & Inspection
Complete disassembly with photographic documentation. Every gear, bearing, shaft, seal, and housing is inspected and measured against OEM specifications.
Failure Analysis
We identify the root cause — not just the symptom. Overloading, misalignment, lubrication failure, contamination, and fatigue are all documented before rebuild begins.
Precision Machining
Worn bores are re-machined to OEM tolerances. Shafts are repaired or replaced. Housings are cleaned, inspected for cracks, and restored to spec.
Component Replacement
Worn or damaged components are replaced — gears cut in-house to AGMA standards, bearings and seals replaced with OEM-equivalent or upgraded parts.
Assembly
Rebuilt units are assembled to OEM torque specs with fresh lubricant and new seals throughout.
Load Testing
Every major rebuild is load-tested on our 500 HP test stand. Vibration, temperature, and flow are verified before shipment.
