Gyro Compass Repair & Overhaul

Precision. Reliability. Safe navigation. Complete gyro compass overhauls by experienced marine electronics specialists: Tokyo Keiki, Sperry Marine, Anschütz, Yokogawa and more.

Overview

Keep your compass on course

A drifting gyro is a detention waiting to happen. Our specialists overhaul and repair all common gyro compass makes, including Tokyo Keiki TG-8000 and Sperry Marine Navigat X MK ii, restoring heading accuracy and operational reliability for safe voyages.

We work at component level: gyrosphere inspection and overhaul, liquid replenishment, PCB diagnostics and repair, not just box-swapping. That's how we keep older gyros alive long after OEM support ends.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers, straight from our surveyors

Tokyo Keiki (TG-5000/TG-6000/TG-8000 and older ES series), Sperry Marine (Navigat X MK i/ii and older SR series), Anschütz (Standard 20/22 and older), Yokogawa (CMZ series) and other common makes.
In most cases yes, we repair at component level and can source tested spares or complete replacement units from recycled stock. If repair is uneconomical we'll quote a retrofit honestly.
A standard overhaul with liquid replenishment is typically completed within one working day on board. Gyrosphere replacement or workshop-level repairs may need 2–4 days depending on spares.
Where stock allows we can supply a tested exchange gyro so the vessel sails on schedule while the original is overhauled in our workshop.
