Heavy Equipment Transmission Remanufacture News Corner

Expert CAT Transmission Remanufacturing by Industrial Reman

At Industrial Reman, we specialize in the precision remanufacturing of CAT transmissions—restoring each component to like-new condition while meeting or exceeding original OEM specifications. With years of technical expertise and a dedication to quality, our team delivers cost-effective, high-performance solutions for heavy equipment operators who depend on Caterpillar reliability.


Comprehensive Disassembly and Inspection

The remanufacturing journey begins with meticulous disassembly. Each CAT transmission that arrives at our facility is carefully examined for external damage and signs of internal failure. We record all serial numbers and model configurations to ensure that the remanufactured unit meets the exact specifications of the original equipment.

Once fully disassembled, every component is cataloged and thoroughly inspected. Using industry-grade tools and diagnostic techniques—including magnetic particle inspection and micrometer precision measurements—we identify reusable parts and flag worn or damaged ones for replacement.


Deep Cleaning and Component Restoration

All transmission components undergo rigorous cleaning using advanced solvent tanks, ultrasonic baths, and pressure-washing systems. This step removes contaminants and prepares parts for accurate assessment and refurbishment.

Reusable components such as housings, shafts, and valve bodies are restored through careful machining, bringing them back to OEM tolerances. We also integrate design improvements and factory updates where applicable, enhancing performance and extending product life.


Precision Reassembly with OEM Standards

With cleaned and restored components in hand, the reassembly process takes place in a controlled environment. Every gasket, seal, bearing, and clutch pack is replaced using high-quality materials that match Caterpillar’s strict standards.

Our technicians follow precise torque specifications and tolerances, ensuring the transmission performs seamlessly in the field. Critical systems—such as hydraulic control modules and clutch assemblies—are tested for accuracy, strength, and durability.


Dyno Testing and Quality Assurance

Industrial Reman takes pride in performance. Each remanufactured CAT transmission is tested on a dynamometer under simulated working conditions. This allows us to verify:

  • Smooth and reliable gear shifts
  • Correct hydraulic pressure behavior
  • Consistent torque converter performance
  • Stable operating temperatures under load

Before shipment, the unit is inspected for leaks, noise, and overall build quality. We finalize the process with fresh paint, proper tagging, and secure packaging to protect the product during transit.
