A stitch in time saves nine! This famous saying means that just like taking care of our bodies can prevent sickness, taking care of machines regularly stops them from breaking down. Ignoring minor problems in a machine is like ignoring early signs of illness—it can lead to bigger issues that would take longer and be more expensive to fix later.
Just like our bodies, machines need regular care to work well and avoid costly repairs in the future. Regular servicing helps machines run smoothly, last longer, and saves time and money. For example, replacing a worn-out part or oiling a machine at the right time can stop a major breakdown that would require expensive repairs.
A properly maintained machine will allow you to complete your projects on time without costly delays.
Many of the Hydraulic Excavators we supply and service in the construction equipment categories have achieved 30,000-40,000 hours of operation thanks to on-time servicing and the use of Genuine Komatsu Parts. In the mining segment, our machines have crossed 70,000 hours of operations, which is like seven times the life of an ordinary car.
The answer is simple: proper maintenance with genuine parts and lubes. Proper maintenance and servicing keep machines safe and enable efficient work, helping them last longer and ensuring successful projects. Companies like Komatsu and L&T CMB understand this well and train their Engineers on the best ways to maintain these machines, offering excellent customer support.
Safety: Regular maintenance helps spot and fix problems before they become serious, keeping your team safe and preventing accidents. When machines malfunction, it can cause dangerous situations, so maintaining them properly is important for safety.
Saving Money: Fixing small issues early on prevents big, expensive repairs. By taking care of minor problems, you extend the machine's life and avoid the high costs of major repairs.
Well-maintained machines save money, keep everyone safe, and help improve productivity. Regularly serviced machines work better, leading to fewer delays and smoother operations on projects.
Longer Machine Life: Regular servicing makes machines last much longer. This means you won't need to buy new ones as often, which is good for your investment. Also, it’s important to use Genuine Komatsu Parts during maintenance. These parts are specially designed for Komatsu machines, ensuring the best fit and performance. Using genuine parts not only keeps the machine running smoothly but also helps avoid issues that could arise from using non-original parts.
KOWA (Komatsu Oil Wear Analysis): Like routine medical tests help diagnose issues early in humans, KOWA tests provide early warnings for Komatsu’s Construction and Mining equipment, helping them last longer and give a better return on investment. By diagnosing potential problems in advance, KOWA helps avoid equipment failure, which is always more cost-effective than replacing expensive parts after a breakdown.
KOMTRAX: Komatsu has integrated energy-efficient technology into their machines, supporting the government's mission for energy conservation while keeping a customer-focused approach.
Swift Service 360 (S360): As part of our efforts to improve service, we have introduced Swift Service 360 (S360), a digital system that makes servicing easier and faster. S360 helps schedule service engineers, manage parts and consumables, and track machine performance through KOMTRAX, a machine monitoring system. S360 improves service speed, ensures better machine performance, and helps field engineers do their best work.
Field Service Management: This project helps improve sales and after-sales service across India, ensuring high-quality service for all L&T products.
Training and Skill Development: L&T CMB has always been at the forefront of technology and customer satisfaction. They provide rigorous training to their engineers to ensure the best service possible. The Central Training Centre (CTC) at Kanchipuram plays a big role in training and development.
You ensure machines stay safe, efficient, and long-lasting by maintaining and servicing construction and mining machines, using genuine Komatsu parts, and regularly availing KOWA testing.
A well-maintained machine is key to successful and safe operations. Prioritise maintenance today to ensure smooth operations tomorrow!
