Reverse Engineering for Obsolete and Critical Industrial Components
A&G Price provides reverse engineering services for mining, rail, manufacturing, energy and heavy industry applications across Australia. Our engineering team specialises in analysing, replicating and improving existing components when original drawings, specifications or OEM support are no longer available.
Reverse engineering allows organisations to extend the life of critical equipment, reduce downtime and source replacement parts for legacy machinery that may no longer be supported by the original manufacturer.
Whether you require a single replacement component or a complete refurbishment solution, A&G Price can develop accurate, cost-effective alternatives tailored to your operational requirements.
What Is Reverse Engineering?
Reverse engineering is the process of analysing an existing component to determine its design, dimensions, material specifications and functional requirements. Using advanced engineering methods, components can be recreated, modified or improved to restore equipment performance and reliability.
This approach is commonly used when:​​
-
OEM parts are obsolete or discontinued
-
Original engineering drawings are unavailable
-
Equipment requires refurbishment or upgrading
-
Lead times for replacement components are excessive
-
Custom improvements are required to enhance performance

Obsolete OEM Part Replacement
Many industrial operations rely on equipment that has been in service for decades. When manufacturers discontinue support or replacement parts become unavailable, reverse engineering provides a practical solution.
Our team can replicate obsolete OEM components and develop replacement parts that meet operational requirements while maintaining compatibility with existing equipment.
In many cases, improvements can be incorporated into the design to enhance durability, reliability and service life.
Industries We Support
Mining operations often depend on critical assets where equipment downtime can result in significant operational losses. We provide reverse engineering solutions for wear components, processing equipment, mechanical assemblies and replacement parts for legacy mining equipment.
A&G Price supports the rail industry through reverse engineering and refurbishment of rail components, bogies, wheelset assemblies and specialised equipment where replacement parts may be difficult to source.
We assist energy, utilities and infrastructure operators by providing engineered replacement components and refurbishment solutions for essential assets.
Industrial manufacturers frequently require replacement parts for ageing production equipment. Our team can recreate components to minimise downtime and extend equipment life.
Integrated Engineering, Foundry and Machining Capabilities
Unlike many engineering providers, A&G Price combines engineering expertise with foundry, machining and fabrication capabilities. This integrated approach allows us to take projects from component assessment through to manufacturing and delivery. By managing the process in-house, we maintain quality control, reduce lead times and provide a single point of accountability throughout the project.
