Who Should Re-Design Your Components That Fail Too Often?

November 7, 2018

At Craftco, we re-design and manufacture replacement components for equipment at a variety of mines and material processing plants. Most of these mines and plants have dump trucks, crushers, and other large pieces of equipment that need to be running for the mine or plant to make money.

When a component on those large machines fails earlier than expected, it can be a huge headache for the maintenance manager who needs to scramble to get the machines up and running again. Craftco has helped mine and plant maintenance managers by manufacturing higher-quality replacement parts and by providing design solutions that make components last longer.

If you are experiencing excessive downtime from equipment failure or if your replacement part costs are high, then it might be time to re-design the components on your machines that fail more often than you would like.

On the other hand, if you find the right manufacturing partner, you may not even need to re-design the component that keeps failing. In several situations, Craftco has been able to manufacture replacement components at such a competitive price that our customers did not need to re-design their part, and instead, they just replaced the components whenever they failed.

When you do need to re-design your components, it can be difficult to decide which type of company you should work with. To help you with your decision making, we put together the infographic below.
