In january 2015 we can serve You with on-site gear measuring. We have bought an protable 6 axes portable gear measurement tool. With this tool we can check and measure the profiles on-site of unknown gears. With this tool we have a universal, highly sophisticated and fully comprehensive 3D coordinate measuring device.

For our customers, this has the advantage that we can measure components in the gearbox. Vulnerable parts need no longer to be transported with all the risks. Gearboxes should be opened just for an short lead-time. Existing heavy gears that should be replaced, doesn't need to be transported with high costs.

In November 2014 we decided to expand our premises, which will be ready in 2015. Due to the strong growth of recent years, the existing production areas have become too full. Also a more emphatic separation of the assembly of gearboxes and the machining operations has become necessary. In addition, the new production facilty will include: a modern test stand a dirty clean room a painting room

Juli 2012 - In verband met de snel groeiende vraag van onze klanten, hebben wij in juli 2012 onze capaciteit uitgebreid met 2 draaibanken, met aangedreven gereedschappen.

Two new machines to provide an even better service

Juli 2012 – To expand our machinery department we bought two new high accuracy machines, the Mori Seiki NLX 2500Y and the PUMA 400M.
Both machines are bought to provide an extra boost to the production of gears and other related parts.
This enables us to offer our customers even more flexibility and service at any given time.

Januari 2012 - In de Hoeksche Waard zijn veel technische bedrijven gevestigd die actief zijn in de apparatenbouw, installatietechniek, technisch onderhoud etc. Al deze bedrijven maken zich zorgen over de vraag hoe ze in de toekomst aan goed technisch personeel moeten komen. Dit terwijl er op de scholen van de Hoeksche Waard zoveel slimme kinderen rondlopen die een goede boterham zouden kunnen gaan verdienen bij deze technische bedrijven. Om nu te bereiken dat er binnen de Hoeksche Waard meer bekendheid ontstaat over de technische bedrijven en het werk dat zij bieden organiseren een aantal bedrijven deze actie.

August 2011 - We have orderd a new Gear Profile Grinding Machine, the NILES ZE 800. The NILES Gear Profile Grinding machines of ZE-Series are extremely suitable for precise grinding of external and internal gears with tip diameter up to 800 mm.

August 2011 - You can follow GBS Gearbox Services international on Twitter (twitter.com/GearboxServices), Facebook (facebook.com/gearbox.services) and Youtube (youtube.com/user/gearboxservices).

July 2011 - On July 8, 2011 we have orderd two new CNC machining centers. The 3-axis NVX5100 and the price winning 5-axis NMV8000 will be added to our workshop. Both machines are of the brand Mori Seiki and will be used to fabricate gears. The machines will be operated by our employee Adjinder Leda.

Jan. 2010 - The total repair costs and lead times are also determined by the logistical operations on site. If our customers do not have a regular supplier for total maintenance or for the on-site logistics, we can advise you with this. Furthermore, we want long term relationships with wind turbine maintenance companies to exchange the right practical data to obtain information on the performance of wind turbine gearboxes, thereby continuing to work on new improvements and modifications.

Nov. 2009 - Since initiating our gearbox services, and the subsequent strong growth of our business, we have decided to change our brand name into Gearbox Services International (abbreviated GBS International). Our machining activities will keep the name of Schaaf- en Boorwerk Rotterdam.

Sept. 2009 - GBS Gearbox Services international have recruited a team who has already performed many inspections on wind turbines. They have also inspected wind farms located all over Europe.

This allows our customers to get the highest level in vibration measurements, torque measurements, geometric alignments, troubleshooting, commissioning, inspections and hands-on services.

July 2009 - Today we placed an order for further automation of production of small parts. Although we are focussing in our strategy on large parts, we regularly have smaller complex parts in order. To this end, we take steps in a flexible automated handling of materials and finished products. The delivery will take place in September 2009. This robot will be operational in sept.

July 2009 - As of August 1, 2009, the gentlemen M. Opstal and T.van Frijters will enter employment at SB.

In this way Schaaf- en Boorwerk Rotterdam BV will increasingly invest in personnel for the new activity of Gearbox Maintenance, which will start by September 1, 2009.

June 2009 - In June 2009, Mr. Vincent van Ede will be employed. Following his broad experience in Stork Gears & Services BV, he will be responsible within our company for the renewal of our machines base on the latest techniques, including the manufacture of gears.
