Restoring a Forklift Axle: From Disintegrated Bearings to Smooth Operation

🔧The thrust bearings in the forklift axle had completely disintegrated, causing significant damage to the shafts.

🛠️The worn double shaft had to be repaired by cutting it open and welding new parts in to restore its functionality.

🔩The steering joint of the axle was also worn out and needed to be replaced to ensure proper steering control.

🔨The damaged parts of the axle were carefully machined and welded to bring them back to the correct dimensions and alignment.

⚙️With the new bearings, joints, and seals installed, the forklift axle is now ready to provide smooth and reliable operation.
