Why repair your 309 Planetary with us

Real numbers before teardown

Most shops quote only after your unit is in pieces on their bench. We publish the whole market — new, used, scrap, competitor repair — up front, so you negotiate from strength.

Cheaper and faster

Our network rate beats standard shop pricing by roughly 18–25% on the 309 Planetary, with turnaround 2–3 days shorter — and 24–72 hour emergency rush when the line is down.

Two-way market maker

If repair isn't the smart move we say so, buy your unit for cash, and can supply a tested used replacement. No other gear shop gives you all three exits.

20+ years of industrial iron

Industrial Surplus World has bought, sold, and rebuilt Bonfiglioli equipment for decades — slewing, tracks, mixers drives are daily work, not an experiment.

About the Bonfiglioli 309 Planetary

The Bonfiglioli 309 Planetary is a 300 series planetary from the 300 planetary, A/F/C helical line, rated slew/track duty across ratios of 3.6:1–3000:1, and most commonly found on slewing, tracks, mixers. Bonfiglioli 300 series planetary and A/C/F helical lines drive mixers, slewing systems, and conveyors across US plants.

When a 309 Planetary fails, the real decision is economic: a new unit lists at $3,800–$10,500 with a 16–30 week factory queue, a tested used unit trades at $1,520–$7,600 when you can find one, and a standard shop rebuild runs $1,750–$6,300 over 10–15 business days. Our in-house network rate of $1,360–$5,200 in 8–12 business days beats all of those paths on total cost of downtime — and if the unit is beyond economic repair, its scrap weight alone is worth $35–$85, while we'll pay $180–$1,820 for the core as-is.

Typical failure modes on this family are bearing wear, shaft-seal leakage, and tooth-surface distress from degraded or contaminated oil. A correct rebuild means full teardown, hot-tank cleaning, magnetic-particle inspection of all gearing, verification of bearing-bore tolerances, all-new bearings, seals, shims and gaskets, reassembly to factory clearances, and a loaded run-test with warranty up to 24 months. Done right, it restores full service life at a fraction of replacement cost.

309 Planetary questions

How much does gear repair cost compared to buying new?
A quality rebuild typically runs 30-60% of new-unit cost — and skips the 16-30 week factory lead time on industrial units. Small ancillary boxes run $1,000-5,000; heavy mill and oilfield gearboxes $10,000-100,000+. We publish both numbers plus a cash offer for your unit as-is. Call (641) 519-6270 for a free teardown quote — or sell us the unit as-is for cash.
How fast can you turn a repair around?
Standard rebuilds ship in 8-12 business days — typically 2-3 days faster than standard shops — and 24-72 hour emergency service is available with free rush freight both directions. Call (641) 519-6270 for a free teardown quote — or sell us the unit as-is for cash.
