Agriculture was one of the key factors in the development of human civilization. Over the millennia, the practice has come a long way since the days of seeding, planting, harvesting and processing by hand. Today, power transmissions for the agricultural industry have made it possible for machinery such as grain elevators and conveyor belts to move crop yields in a manner that’s expedient and efficient.
As a leading supplier of agricultural gearboxes, gear reducers, Falk couplings and other essential power transmission products, Mar-Dustrial keeps your farming equipment in top shape. As one of only three factory-authorized Falk repair facilities in the United States, we’re fully equipped to return worn-out gear assemblies to like-new condition. Because we leverage the stellar reputation and reliability of the leading brands we represent, you receive the productivity, efficiency and affordability your operation requires.
Agricultural Gearbox Parts and Services to Keep Your Operations Profitable
The agriculture industry is moving faster than ever before thanks to a growing demand for food products. To keep up with demand, the industry is turning to shorter cropping cycles, which means agricultural machinery and the gearboxes within them work overtime. This inevitably leads to greater wear and tear on power transmission components. To keep equipment running smoothly, minimize downtime, and boost the bottom line, the agriculture industry looks to Mar-Dustrial’s five-star parts and services:
- Rapid repairs and deliveries: Mar-Dustrial gladly accommodates rush orders 24 hours, seven days a week. Our dedicated team of experts won’t stop working on your repair until your gear reducer is restored to like-new condition and sent back to you. Turnaround times are typically 24 to 48 hours because we know that every minute your machinery is out of service, the more you have to lose.
- Affordable rebuilds: The specialists at Mar-Dustrial have access to the largest inventory of new and used parts in the industry. This convenience translates into savings without sacrificing quality. When you receive a repair estimate, it will always include quotes for new and surplus parts so you can see how much you’ll save.
- Access to hard-to-find parts: Mar-Dustrial’s vast selection of new and used parts also includes the largest inventory of surplus parts in the industry. If your agricultural machinery is an old workhorse, there’s a good chance we’ll have the component you need. If we don’t, don’t worry. Our team will recommend a replacement that works just as well.
- Quality you can always trust: Whether you purchase new or used Falk gearboxes and parts from Mar-Dustrial, you’ll always be satisfied with their top-of-the-line performance. We rigorously clean and inspect every part before it’s available for purchase. After completing each rebuild, we spin-test it and back it with a one-year warranty.
Maintaining Power Transmissions for the Agricultural Industry
Your business depends on the reliability and efficiency of the gearboxes in your farming equipment. Simple maintenance tasks will prolong their life, especially when your equipment works overtime:
- Keep it clean: When you’re out in the fields, your agricultural equipment will get dirty. If you allow dust and mud to build up on it, the particles can make their way into the gearbox, contaminate the lubricant and cause the components to fail prematurely. Protect the gearbox by cleaning the machinery regularly.
- Keep it lubricated: Insufficient lubrication leads to damage-causing friction. Prevent this from happening with regular oil changes and by looking for particles in an oil sample, which may indicate an internal malfunction.
- Visual inspections and vibration analysis: Regularly inspecting Falk gearboxes and performing vibration analyses in agricultural machinery will help you spot troubling symptoms before components fail. These symptoms include flaking, cracking, fatigue, vibration, overheating and strange noises.
