Annual Maintenance Contracts for Crane

Annual Maintenance Contracts for Crane

cranes count among the most critical equipments for capital intensive industries like Infrastructure, Manufacturing, Steel, Power etc. It is therefore important to have a smooth and trouble-free operation of these cranes to ensure higher availability and uptime resulting in increased productivity and profitability.

A few compelling questions that bother all the above industries are:

  1. How to prolong the useful life of a crane?
  2. How to ensure optimum utilisation of the crane?
  3. How to predict breakdowns and enhance safety at the workplace?
  4. How to minimise the total cost of ownership?

The solution to all the above questions lies in ‘Annual Maintenance Contracts (AMC)’.

Now what exactly is Crane AMC and why are they essential?

In addition to regular health checks, your cranes require a structured preventive maintenance plan. This plan ensures that cranes provide long and reliable service while remaining in healthy condition. Under AMC, all the major parts and components of the crane are checked to ensure their integrity and ability to perform at all levels. AMC helps in the timely prediction of the health of the parts and components to avoid any undue circumstances leading to crane downtime and eventual production loss.
