Inspection and repair of FLENDER GP1 320 gearbox

GBS International got this FLENDER GP1 320 gearbox in our workshop in Belgium. After inspecting the gearbox, we did a complete overhaul and testing. After our review department was done, we send the gear unit back to our client.

This report provides an overview of the inspection of the starboard jetpump gearbox, onboard the TSHD James Cook, during docking at Remontowa Shiprepair Yard Gdansk, Poland.

The docking took place after flooding of the engine-room, during dredging operations in Sabeta, RU.

GBS International was invited by the client to inspect and overhaul both dredgepump- and Propulsion-gearboxes and the attached Pneumaflex/Pneumastar clutches. Inspection of the Jetpump gearbox was carried out between the overhaul and sea-trial.

After the inspection onboard, it was decided to remove the complete gearbox and transport it to the GBS workshop in Oud-Beijerland, the Netherlands, for full inspection and overhaul.
