Equipment Maintenance and Repair

Maintenance services are the best way to prevent machinery from breaking down. They also provide safer working conditions, increase business efficiency, and extend equipment life.

Types of Industrial Equipment Maintenance Services

• Corrective or reactive maintenance is a short-term strategy for getting components back in working condition as quickly as possible. 
• Predictive maintenance helps prevent problems before they occur. It uses methods like vibration analysis to reduce instances of breakdowns that interrupt operations.
• Preventative maintenance accounts for previous breakdown history to schedule maintenance activity in advance. 
• Condition-based maintenance is the most straightforward type, involving the application of things like mechanical grease when a small, correctable problem is seen.

Monthly Conveyor Inspection and Reporting

A monthly conveyor inspection is essential for employees' safety and the machinery's longevity. A standard inspection includes a visual assessment of the system, checking the alignment and tension, and removing debris. The report includes the inspector's name, the date and time, any issues seen, and suggested actions.

Industrial Facility Maintenance

Welding and Fabrication

Fabrication is the completion of components for manufacturing processes. Welding uses high temperatures to join metal components or cut metal into custom-size pieces, which is a step in the overall industrial fabrication process.

Lubrication Services

Applying industrial lubricants to moving machinery parts, such as gears and bearings, reduces friction, lessening wear and tear. Properly lubricating industrial equipment can extend its lifespan, minimize repair downtime, and create a safer working environment.

Shutdown and Turnaround Services

Shutdowns and turnaround are necessary events that allow for maintenance and repairs. A shutdown lasts several hours to a few days while equipment is inspected and upgraded, if required.

Conveyor Repair and Replace

Industrial conveyor systems are rugged but not invincible. The most common repairs are belt splicing and patching of small tears or punctures. The causes behind most repair or replacement needs are belt mistracking, belt slippage, and seized rollers.

Lifting and Rigging

Lifting and rigging often occur together but are separate activities. Lifting is the actual movement of a load, and rigging is the process that secures the load for safety before lifting begins.

Dismantling and Moving

If you’re moving to a new job site, we can disassemble industrial equipment, move it to another location, and reassemble it. Professional dismantling and moving makes the process more efficient and minimizes the risk of damaging machinery.

Transporting Materials

We move equipment and supplies to and from storage areas and work sites using flatbeds, forklifts, and cranes.

Safety Compliance

We abide by all regulations and guidelines for industrial facilities. Adhering to safety protocols and procedures ensures a safe, healthy workplace and minimizes injuries and other health concerns.

Structure Steel Erection

Structure steel erection involves assembling components at the building site. Steel is robust and versatile, making it excellent for framing structures. Industrial steel is twice as strong as commercial steel and doesn’t degrade as quickly under heavy use and environmental exposure.

Pipe Fitting

A reliable pipe system is vital for safely transporting various gases and liquids throughout a facility. Industrial pipe fitters fabricate, install, and maintain these systems to ensure they work correctly.

Emergency Services

When critical machinery or equipment malfunctions, time is of the essence. We can promptly repair or replace these components to get your facility back on track.

Hydro Systems

Hydro systems are a cost-effective, renewable energy source that uses flowing water to generate electricity for industrial facilities. Maintaining yours will ensure an uninterrupted power supply and allow some areas of your facility to continue operating if the primary electrical grid is offline.

Aggregate Mines

Aggregate mines source materials necessary for the construction industry, including gravel and sand, using crushers, shakers, sifters, conveyor systems, and mixers. These materials are used for various purposes, including building roads and making glass and cement.

Material Handling

Industrial material handling streamlines operations and optimizes productivity. Handling equipment with lever hoists, gantry cranes, and forklifts makes your workplace safer and more efficient.
