How Sandvik condition inspections deliver reliability

It’s crucial, of course, that you keep a close eye on your most important assets. You and your team understand your crushing equipment deeply because you work with it every day, but there’s an extra level of knowledge that only Sandvik qualified engineers can deliver.

Inspections from Sandvik’s experts give you peace of mind that your crushing and screening machinery is functioning well, but there’s even more to it than that. As well as being the original manufacturers, Sandvik use thousands of applications as a benchmark in developing their maintenance procedures so you know that inspections are supported by an unmatched level of experience and expertise.

  • Periodic inspections

    Sandvik organize their service agreements in a step-wise structure, according to the inspection frequency.

  • Condition inspections - Delivering reliability

    Condition Inspections is all about preventative maintenance and reliability.  Inspections are undertaken by a certified Sandvik engineer – someone who knows your crushing and screening equipment inside out – at a time which coincides with planned liner changes to minimize downtime.

    Sandvik inspections delve deep to uncover any reliability issues. They are structured around a comprehensive checklist that covers more than 100 points to reveal the exact condition of your crushers and identify any developing maintenance requirements.

  • Always looking ahead

    Every Sandvik inspection ends with us delivering a detailed report on the current condition of your equipment that contains recommendations for improved reliability. A key part of this report is the trend analysis. This is a deep examination of your operational and maintenance trends, one that identifies reliability risks and helps you to know what needs to be monitored over time. It’s a guide to avoiding expensive problems in the future, and it also suggests corrective actions and improvements. This might include recommendations about your maintenance arrangements, advice on which spare parts you should keep on hand, and suggested upgrades to improve reliability and performance.
