Professional Header Gearbox Repair: Solution from Bas-Agro LLC

Renowned Ukrainian manufacturer of agricultural spare parts expands service offerings for farmers

Bas-Agro LLC, which has been successfully producing aftermarket spare parts for imported agricultural machinery for over ten years, has announced the launch of a new service — professional header gearbox repair. This solution will be a real lifesaver for farms facing failures of these critically important components during peak season.

Why Gearbox Repair is a Cost-Effective Alternative

The header gearbox is one of the most heavily loaded mechanisms during harvest. Constant vibrations, high speeds, operation in dusty conditions and temperature fluctuations lead to natural wear of parts. Traditionally, when a gearbox failed, farmers faced a choice: buy a new one (which costs from tens to hundreds of thousands of hryvnias depending on the model) or look for a used option with unpredictable service life.

Bas-Agro offers a third way — quality repair with warranty, which allows restoring the gearbox's functionality at a reasonable price.

Which Gearboxes Are Repaired at Bas-Agro

The company's specialists work with gearboxes from various header manufacturers:

  • Capello (including corn headers)
  • Geringhoff
  • Olimac
  • Fantini
  • Precision
  • Other European and American brands

The distinctive feature of the service is that specialists undertake gearboxes from any manufacturers — even if it's a rare model or equipment that has been discontinued.

Repair Technology: Step-by-Step Procedure

The gearbox restoration process at Bas-Agro LLC consists of several stages:

1. Diagnostics and Disassembly

Qualified mechanics perform complete gearbox disassembly with documentation of each component's condition. This allows identifying not only obvious breakdowns but also hidden defects that may appear in the near future.

2. Defect Detection

At this stage, a detailed list of worn parts is compiled: gears, bearings, oil seals, shafts. The condition of the housing, threaded connections, and mounting surfaces is assessed.

3. Replacement of Worn Components

A critically important point: Bas-Agro uses its own manufactured aftermarket parts for repairs, which match original quality but cost significantly less. The company has over 1,200 items in its catalog for various types of headers, allowing quick identification of the needed component.

4. Assembly and Testing

After replacing worn parts, the gearbox is assembled in compliance with all technological requirements, including proper tightening of bolted connections and filling with quality oil. Test operation is mandatory.

Quality Guarantee

Bas-Agro LLC provides official warranty on repaired gearboxes. This confirms the company's confidence in the quality of work performed and spare parts used. Warranty service terms are discussed individually with each customer.

Visual Example: Production Video

To allow customers to verify the reality of the service and see the work process, the company published a video from the production facility:

The video shows Capello corn header gearboxes at various stages of repair: from newly received for diagnostics to fully restored and ready for operation. This provides an opportunity to assess the scale of production and team professionalism.

Comprehensive Approach: From Spare Parts to Repair

It's important to understand that the gearbox repair service is a logical continuation of Bas-Agro LLC's core business. The company has been producing quality aftermarket parts for imported agricultural machinery, including various types of headers, for over ten years.

The company's catalog includes:

  • Header knives and fingers
  • Augers and their components
  • Sprockets, chains, gears
  • Hydraulic and pneumatic parts
  • Bearings, bushings, oil seals
  • Gearbox elements
