Inspections
Know where you stand with your fleet today. Equipment inspections will help you identify what repairs, refurbishments and upgrades are needed to ensure that your fleet stays as safe, productive and reliable as possible. Our experts determine the appropriate inspection level, conduct the agreed inspection and deliver a structured report on the findings including the next steps to take.
We provide:
- Drone inspections
- Visual and functional inspections based on checklists
- Structural inspections
Repairs and refurbishments
Unexpected equipment availability issues and costs are risks that can be managed by taking good care of your equipment throughout its lifetime. By refurbishing your aging equipment, you can extend the life of your fleet in a cost-effective way. From smaller repairs to extensive overhauls, our team will ensure your equipment works optimally today, and tomorrow: extending the life and maximising the value of your investment.
We provide for example:
- Equipment repair and refurbishment projects (Kalmar & 3rd party equipment)
- Key component repairs and remanufacturing (e.g. engines, drives, gearboxes, batteries)
