Given the context here, I think the phrase "se descalan y calan los soportes de rodamientos" is probably something like "remove and replace the bearing blocks".
But "calar" & especially "descalar" seem to be very obscure verbs, & I wasn't able to find much on either of them. Possibly a regional usage? Is this from Ecuador? Is it contemporary?

For what it is worth, but I lost the page I searched for "descalan (soportes de) rodamientos" and one idea was "decouple".

Sep 28, 2016 - uncouple is used on physical couplings. Like a train coupling (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Railway_coupling). To physically detach. decouple the power supply fluctuation from interacting with the amplifier output.
HTH!

Discussion
When a part, such as a bearing, is cooled, it is shrunk before assembly, then expands to make a tight fit.
Curiously 'shrink fitting' is used in both cases.

.Descalado de ruedas en engranajes.
Shrink fitting of gear wheels.
(I have done this myself )Timing gears and axle bearings were pressed over the shaft or axle, warm the gear or bearing up in the oven and while it is still warm it will go on easier and be tighter and not move when it cools
