Projects and Overhauls
Sugar mill - Locomotive final drive overhaul
A customer we've had the pleasure of dealing with for many years.
INSPECT - ASSESS - REPORT - REPAIR - REBUILD
These final drive differentials are always a welcome sight in the workshop and this video shows some snippets of the journey we take these units through each time they come in for inspection and overhaul.
Ships damaged boom removal - Brisbane November 2021
SAFETY FOCUSED - FAST RESPONSE - CONTROLLED
The shipping industry rests for nothing. This includes major mechanical failures and in this instance Synergia1 was there to provide a safe, controlled and fast response to get this ship back into service.
After the initial inspection it was immediately evident that this project was going to be a great one to be involved with.
We will let the video do the talking.

Bucket Elevator overhaul / retro fit
In May 2021 we had the pleasure of working with the Incitec Pivot team in Brisbane's Pinkenba plant to repair and retro fit one of their bucket elevators.
The Bucket elevator was an old style chain elevator that had failed and caused significant damage to the chains, buckets and elevator casing at the boot area. With the intention to upgrade this elevator to a rubber belt utilizing common assets across their business unit with standard head and tail pulleys, gear motor unit and bearings, Synergia1 went to work to pull it all together.
With this being our first project with Incitec Pivot, we really wanted to show case our workshop, engineering and project capabilities and are extremely proud of how our team delivered.
Original bucket elevator capacity - 60t/hr.
Retro fitted capacity - 107t/hr.
Safety - Quality - Timeline.

Thrust bearing installation
This quick video is an example of a thrust bearing installation on a shaft for an extrusion gearbox. These boxes run at extremely high stress levels and this overhaul was the result of a thrust bearing failure. In this installation the process was:
- Make up plate to accept shaft and mount to trestles,
- Pre heating test to make sure all equipment was ready and working.
- Pre heat measurements to ensure clearance sizes for fitting shaft.
- Heat bearings to minimum temperature to achieve clearance for fit.
- Line up and drop in.
Here we had Rod and Daniel making it look easy.
Our latest toy
Joining the team in September to streamline our latest structural project, this portable, hand held hydraulic punch is about to earn its keep. With a capability of Ø24mm on 16mm M/S plate, this is one handy bit of gear.
