When you operate a construction fleet, your machines put in a lot of work to stay on schedule. With the long hours of powerful performance, they need maintenance and repairs to recover. At Thompson Machinery, we offer a range of heavy equipment mobile repairs to offer convenience and speed for on-site performance issues that threaten to slow you down.
FIELD SERVICE OFFERS A WIDE RANGE OF REPAIR CAPABILITIES
We maintain a fleet of over 50 field service vehicles equipped with boom-cranes, air compressors, and advanced tooling. Our field service technicians have laptop computers with the latest Caterpillar diagnostic programs. With these capabilities, our service technicians and vehicles can be dispatched to your job site to complete needed repairs quickly.
VITAL FUNCTIONALITY REPAIRS AND PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
Field service refers to vital maintenance and repair tasks performed on heavy equipment at customer locations rather than a fixed site. Our mobile repairs are crucial to your machinery’s parts and overall performance. The three main areas that often need attention on the field include:
- Engines: Ensuring optimal performance through regular checks and repairs.
- Hydraulics: Maintaining hydraulic systems for efficiency.
- Undercarriages: Addressing wear and tear to prevent downtime.
When these parts fail, your entire production goes on hold. Effective field service is essential to minimize disruptions and maintain productivity.
Our technicians have all the tools and expertise to get your machine up and running, and you can always visit one of our locations for further service. We provide permanent solutions where we can recommend a course of action when you contact us for construction equipment onsite service.
When you notice reduced productivity but no equipment failure, our preventive maintenance can optimize machine performance and stop problems before they start. We’ll handle the minor services, like oil changes and waste disposal, so you don’t have to.
With our SOS℠ Fluid Analysis maintenance program, we can examine performance and take action on any abnormal readings. With an array of maintenance options, you can keep your equipment productive all year long, and you can personalize your service to your needs.
