Equipment Management is an ever-evolving science with existing frontiers being constantly broken while new ones are being set. One of those frontiers is in Wear Surface Management and more particularly Undercarriage and GET. Companies operating heavy gear are spending large dollars on Undercarriage and GET. The question on both end customer and supplier’s minds is: […]

In our travels we have yet to find a substitute for Undercarriage Inspections. This is the single most effective way to manage and monitor the performance, condition and cost of your fleet of tracked machines. There is no alternative, and for those salesman looking to help their customers manage these machines and gain sales; inspections

Would inspecting GET and Bucket Wear Surfaces provide value for both maintenance management and condition monitoring purposes? There are some compelling reasons to monitor buckets and GET Production can be affected when the primary loading tool is down to some failure of a bucket, be this missing teeth/adaptors or cracked core. Worn cutting edges, teeth

The Undercarriage Components installed on your equipment are expected to achieve a certain budgeted life. However, this is not where the story ends, because the components will not achieve their budgeted life if they are not properly managed, and the only way to manage undercarriage components is to measure them. Measuring the components will identify

Condition monitoring is one of the pillars of equipment Maintenance. Every maintenance department ensures Oil samples are taken regularly, but that wasn’t necessarily the case 20 years ago. Imagine asking a maintenance department today if they take oil samples and being told, ‘No, we’re too busy to take Oil Samples’. The importance of regular oil

Undercarriage inspections collect inspection data from the field and allow the calculation of the current degree of wear on each undercarriage component and also allow a forecast of the remaining life on that component.  This is just the beginning of the information that then becomes available. As with any area of a business, good management
