REPAIR OPTIONS

Extend Life Cycle and Maximize Value with Repair Options Tailored to Your Needs

When you plan and repair before a failure, you are making a great economic decision for your operation. CAT machines and components are designed to last several lives, with only replacing the internal parts which have had normal wear caused by the equipment utilization. On the other hand, if a part, component, and/or equipment fails, the cost to recover it could be up to 2.5 times the value of the repair before failure. Studies agree that 90% of catastrophic failures could have been avoided if the affected parts had been intervened, with due anticipation.

We have streamlined our Repair Options to provide you with an easier decision-making process. Whether you prioritize cost and/or minimizing downtime risk, aim to prolong the lifespan of components, or prefer to retain your own equipment, we have the right solution for your needs.
