Preventative Maintenance
Our Preventive Maintenance Programs are designed around your company and its Material Handling needs. Depending on use, environment, and type of equipment, Precision Equipment can help you determine the most effective and cost efficient plan for your company.
The specific purpose for our maintenance is to warrent equipment saftey as well as cut down on repair costs and prevent lengthy equipment down time.
Having a PM Program can also assist in the prevention of expensive repairs such as engine replacement or electrical drive motor repairs. It will also allow you to forsee any upcoming repairs, which lets you schedule those repairs around your company's budget.
After a PM checklist is done on your equipment, a proposal of all the repairs that are needed are explained to you verbally. If requested, a written proposal will be drafted and sent to you explaining all the parts needed, labor hours required and the estimated price (which are within 15%). It is at this time you may schedule the repair(s), if so desired, being already aware of the estimated costs.
