CNC repair in Oshkosh
Heavy fabrication on Lake Winnebago
Oshkosh is known for specialty vehicles, and building them takes a lot of heavy fabrication: plate cutting, bending, rolling and welding, plus machined components. The suppliers and fab shops around the city run the same kinds of equipment.
Heavy fab equipment is our everyday work here: large press brakes, fiber and plasma cutting, plate rolls, welding robots and the hydraulics that power them. We keep it accurate and safe, and keep the machining centers next to it running.
Oshkosh is on I-41 between Fond du Lac and the Fox Cities, inside our Green Bay team’s area.

Press brake, shear and laser repair in Oshkosh
Our Green Bay team handles the fab side of Oshkosh shops too: press brake hydraulics and back gauges, shear blades, fiber laser and plasma cut problems, punch press clutches and brakes, ironworkers, saws and plate rolls.
Heavy fabrication in Oshkosh run press brakes, plate rolls and plasma and laser, and the calls we get there are sync, alignment and cut quality. See press brake and shear repair and laser and plasma repair.
Robot cell and PLC repair for Oshkosh plants
Oshkosh plants run robots, PLC-controlled lines and machine-tending cells. We troubleshoot Fanuc, Yaskawa Motoman, ABB and Kuka robots, Allen-Bradley and Siemens PLCs, safety circuits, and the sensors and drives that stop a line.
For Oshkosh’s welding, that’s welding robots and cells. The usual calls: wire feed, TCP and safety. See robot and automation repair and PLC repair.
Vertical, horizontal and 5-axis repair in Oshkosh
When a machining center in Oshkosh stops mid-cycle, it’s usually the tool changer, an axis alarm, a lube fault or a sensor, not the expensive part. Our Green Bay team traces it on the machine, fixes it on site when it can, and quotes the rest before anything gets ordered.
In Oshkosh, we see this most at machine shops: machining centers and lathes, with calls for spindles and alarms. See CNC mill repair.
CNC lathe and turning center repair in Oshkosh
Turning centers, Swiss-types and VTLs all come through our Oshkosh work orders. We check turret alignment, hydraulic pressure and spindle runout along with the alarm, so the lathe holds size when it goes back into production.
We cover this work across Winnebago County, from shops along I-41 to Pickett and Winneconne. See CNC lathe repair.
CNC control and drive repair in Oshkosh
An alarm you can’t clear stops a Oshkosh machine cold. We work on Fanuc, Siemens, Heidenhain, Mitsubishi, Mazatrol, Okuma OSP and Haas controls, and we check cabinet cooling and filters while we’re there, because heat causes a lot of the next alarm.
Shops in Eureka and Butte des Morts call us for the same work. See CNC control repair.
Plant line repair in Oshkosh: conveyors, motors and drives
Oshkosh plants run conveyors, packaging and wrapping lines, gearmotors and VFDs that can’t stop for long. Our Green Bay team repairs drive trips, motor failures, washdown sensor problems, jams and line faults, and the PLCs that tie them together.
Our Green Bay team handles it anywhere around Oshkosh, including Omro and Pickett. See conveyor and packaging repair and motor and VFD repair.
Spindle, servo and hydraulic rebuilds in Oshkosh
Heavy cutting and long shifts wear out spindles, servo motors and hydraulic units. We test them on the machine, repair what can be repaired in place, and rebuild spindles and servo motors with new bearings and seals when they’re done.
Shops off I-41 know the routine: call, tell us the machine and the alarm, and a tech heads over. See spindle rebuilds and servo motor rebuilds.
CNC maintenance plans in Oshkosh
Our Green Bay team runs maintenance plans for mills, lathes, press brakes, lasers, robots and plant equipment in Oshkosh. Each visit covers lube, filters, hydraulics, batteries and backups, accuracy checks and a written report. Our maintenance packages go further too: multi-week on-site tech deployment while you hire, and help finding the right maintenance people.
Plans cover shops across Winnebago County, including Butte des Morts and Omro. See maintenance packages.

Example call in Oshkosh
Plasma table cutting out-of-round holes
The call
A fabricator in Oshkosh found holes cut on a plasma table coming out slightly oval.
What we did
- Diagnose. One gantry drive’s pinion was loose on its shaft and the Y-axis rack had debris packed in it.
- Fix. Secured the pinion, cleaned the rack and checked gantry square.
- Prove. Cut test holes that measured round.
The result. Round holes again.
A typical call, written to show how we work. It isn’t a specific customer.
