Reviving vintage Okuma ball screws.

On the bench refurbishment of an Okuma ball screw. Ballscrew Guys does many of these machine center and lathe ball screws for older Okumas. Seldom do we get the newer machines, as they usually receive OEM support. Our experience comes from servicing and repair of the older machines. The dinosaurs in the back of the shop which refuse to die. We love these machines. For those looking to keep your dinosaur running, we always suggest checking eBay. You can often find used ball screws taken off scrap machines at good prices. But there are often reasons for this. The machines are often judged to be decommissioned because the ball screws and motion systems have too many hours on them. They are worn out. Ballscrew Guys are your people because we can take these older worn assemblies and bring them back to like-new performance. Assuming, of course, that there is no damage or excessive corrosion on the core parts.
