Thermography
Thermo imaging is the latest technology developed to help modern industries pinpoint problem areas within mechanical and electrical systems. Our Thermo Imaging program can help you identify issues not apparent in visual inspections. For example, loose electrical connections can be located before they damage equipment or cause serious ARC flashes, and higher temperatures on one side of a belt can indicate improper tension or tracking. Also, bad motor bearings are always hard to identify, but they glow brightly during a Thermal Imaging inspection.

Detailed System Audit
- Evaluation of the Mechanical and Electrical components of the conveyor system
- Plus a detailed list of parts and quantities
Preventative Maintenance Programs
A well maintained system will run longer and perform better. A regularly scheduled PM program will help you get the most out of your system.
General System PM
- Evaluation of the Mechanical and Electrical components of the conveyor system
- Belt Tracking and Lacing Repairs
- Lubrication of bearing and chains
- Minor repairs of <1/2hr
Full System PM
- Evaluation of the Mechanical and Electrical components of the conveyor system
- Plus repairs of major failure items
*NOTE: All repairs are on “Time and Material” after quoted time.
Pre-Peak Season Evaluation Audit
Is your system ready for Peak Season?
Knowing the condition of your system is the first step in being ready for Peak-Season. Hidden issues never fail at a convenient time. It’s during the heaviest product flow…when…BAM…everything stops! An Evaluation Audit is a key step in making sure your system is ready for the season.
Do you have critical components and spare parts on-hand? During an evaluation audit we will help you make sure you have the needed inventory to get you thru this critical time.
- Evaluate System Thru-Put
- Evaluate System Reliability
- Perform “General System Audit”
- Update/Backup of PLC and Control parameters
- Evaluate Critical Spare Parts
- Schedule Repairs of system issues before Pre-Season launch
