AFTER SALES SERVICES

CMC Industries portfolio includes also a variety of after sales services foreseen to maximize both performances and operational reliability of installed products and system.

A wide range of training opportunities are available, either in our training center at CMC Industries headquarter or directly at Customer's site, for qualifying Customer's personnel to be perfectly prepared for everything that could be required during the operative life.
Preventive and corrective maintenance services are also available as both remote service and on-site assistance, this to allow at all times the best possible performance and availability.

Spare parts service is available to support any need of consumable or wear parts, as well as of possible replacement. This service could be arranged with a combination of a minimum set of parts stored locally and a wide range of parts stored in our warehouse that can be shipped almost immediately through Couriers everywhere in the world.

Operative lifetime can be extended over the initially estimated period by customized modernization activities that will bring the system / product to a new life.

Modernization is not intended as a simple replacement of worn or obsolete parts with new component, it could arrive to include a complete redesign in order to fit with new operative requirements or to increase energy efficiency / reduce operative costs.

 

Training and qualification

CMC Industries training are customized on Customers' needs and vary in a wide range of contents and formats from basic to advanced trainings and depending from factors like the skill of attendants or the topics to be discussed (i.e. use of a machine, maintenance of a system, and so on).

Common characteristic of all trainings is the aim to offer to Customers' personnel the opportunity for fully conducting their products / systems while minimizing costs and any residual risk.

Benefit of training performed in our training center at CMC Industries headquarter is the possibility to have access to the workshop area, becoming so familiar with the different realization phases, and to be far away from time pressure and disruptions of live operations. Benefit of training performed at Customer's site is the possibility to work directly on the real system analyzing in a deeper way all site specific topics. This of course need a preliminary planning from the Customer as it could interfere with operative activities.

CMC Industries suggest, to get benefit of both solutions while minimizing the impact on operations, to combine the solution with a "training on the job" where maintenance Personnel works beside our Personnel during execution of site activities, and a dedicated training at our training center.

During the training, with the purpose of increasing the knowledge of all potential areas of failure and among all other topics, our experienced trainers will provide a broad overview of all working procedures with particular focus to Safety, normal operations and maintenance, inspection and troubleshooting, handling of documentation (drawings, manuals, spare part lists).

Attendants to the training, upon its completion, receives a certificate that states their capability to conduct maintenance and repair works.

Preventive and corrective Maintenance

Maintenance refers to the whole package of actions (technical, administrative and supervision) to keep a system in operation or to bring it to a condition compatible with the execution of expected functionalities. The activities, depending from the triggering event, can be divided in two main categories:

Corrective (or reactive) maintenance refers to those activities performed upon request to rectify a failure bringing the system again in operation and properly performing the expected functionalities. This category includes also the extraordinary maintenance, intended as those operations necessary to upgrade or refurbish the system to fits with new project specifications or to fit with new legal requirements.

Preventive (or proactive) maintenance refers to those activities performed, according to preliminary analysis and to predefined criteria, at fixed time periods with the aim to reduce both the probability of a failure and the normal wear and tear of the system. This category includes also the ordinary maintenance, intended as those operations, foreseen by the operation and maintenance manuals, which can be executed on components and subsystems using standard tools.

Availability on site of a proper spare parts kit and execution of all services and/or replacement of parts by trained personnel help to minimize the downtime for either failures or execution of activities.

Activities of both categories could be performed by resident engineers that will assist to normal operations and perform all type of maintenance.

CMC Industries offer can include, according to customer's requirements / needs, the following different service levels:

Silver level: (costs are based on incurred costs) inclusive of spare parts service, corrective and extraordinary maintenance

Gold level: (costs are based on incurred costs plus forfeit for preventive maintenance) inclusive of services foreseen for Silver level plus preventive maintenance

Platinum level: (forfeit costs) inclusive of services foreseen for Gold level conductive maintenance. Spare resources to cover the fluctuation of site Team (day shifts / holidays / sickness periods) are foreseen in the global package

 

Modernization

After many years of service also CMC Industries systems and products approaches to the end of their expected operative life and, even if the robustness and high reliability are unchanged, they have to cope either with the unavoidable obsolescence of parts with the unavailability of spare parts or with new legal or technological requirements that may have changed considerably.

Operative lifetime can be extended over the initially estimated period by customized modernization activities that will bring the system / product to a new life.

Among all the advantages provided to the Customers by modernization activities, could be highlighted topics like reduction of service costs, adherence to new legal or operative requirements, increased energy efficiency with the consequent reduction of operative costs.

Modernization is not intended as a simple replacement of worn or obsolete parts with new component, it could arrive to include a complete redesign of systems and products.
