The maintenance of industrial plant faces the challenge of minimising downtime and carrying out repairs quickly and cost-effectively. Original components are often difficult to obtain or come with long lead times, particularly for older systems whose manufacturers no longer carry the components in their range. Designers and maintenance engineers therefore need suppliers with a broad stock programme and the ability to manufacture special parts at short notice.
Alongside availability, technical advice is decisive: maintenance engineers must be able to assess quickly which standard component is suitable as a replacement or whether a custom-made solution is necessary. An experienced contact saves time and costs here.
With over 12,000 items in its stock programme, WMH Herion offers a broad basis for the fast procurement of spare parts and replacement components. Racks, gears, gear units and drive elements in the most common dimensions and modules are available from stock and are delivered within a few working days.
For cases in which standard parts do not fit, WMH Herion offers standard further machining: racks are cut to length, gears are provided with adapted bores or keyways and components are supplied ready for installation. This often saves the time and cost of a complete new development.
