1 EuroMaint Industry partner for more efficient production 1

2 EuroMaint Industry At EuroMaint Industry we are specialists in production streamlining. We are an independent full service partner that helps industrial companies to increase their competitiveness on the market. EuroMaint Industry has a unique portfolio as we cover the vast majority of aspects that can help raise production efficiency. Together we can increase your company s profitability. Want to know how? There is a growing realisation that modern production can be more profitable through improved availability, better equipment efficiency and higher quality. Fundamentally it is about observation, confirmation and having the courage to change. We have the necessary resources EuroMaint Industry based in Skövde, central Sweden is currently helping several industrial companies to streamline their production process through structured operational reliability management, swift repairs, intelligent automation solutions and much more. Thanks to our independence, expertise and experience, we can often deal with issues that other contractors are unable to tackle, or choose not to. We also offer total service concepts in maintenance, for instance. Centuries of collective know-how EuroMaint Industry is a company with vast experience. The foundations of our business date back to the 19th century, under the name Sköfde Gjuteri och Mekaniska Verkstad. In the 1930s the operation became part of the Volvo Group. The many years spent as part of Volvo built up a vast bank of expertise in servicing, production and maintenance, and this expertise benefits our customers today. In 2000 we became an independent company which was later acquired by the Swedish-owned corporation EuroMaint. Today EuroMaint Industry is a subsidiary within the EuroMaint Group. Simplicity and peace of mind everything from one partner We offer both broad and specialist expertise, from analysis to execution and evaluation. From long-term turnkey solutions to smaller localised input. Through structured and preventive maintenance, we help you take control and increase your overall equipment efficiency (OEE). With component servicing we support our maintenance offering with spare parts, troubleshooting and repairs. When there are changes to the production process we provide experienced production engineers, project managers and technical designers to ensure reliable solutions and secure implementation with minimal operational disruption. When a customised product is preferable to a standard one, we develop and manufacture tailor-made equipment and automation solutions. We are where you are Being close to the customer is important. Only by understanding the conditions and challenges you face can we provide the right service and suggest appropriate measures for improvement. We therefore continually establish new branches, which are part of our evolution towards always being available close to you, even when it comes to specialised services. What s more, EuroMaint Industry can also follow your company abroad should the need arise. We aim to give you the best service.

4 Engineering & Operational Reliability Quality maintenance is apparent in disruption-free production and a high level of safety. Delivery precision and satisfied customers are other clear indicators. Maintenance is about managing and reaping the rewards of major investments. It s about constant change and improvement. What may appear to be small alterations can often make a big difference. EuroMaint Industry can help increase your company s operational reliability. The price of inadequate maintenance The most common symptoms of inadequate maintenance are a lack of capacity, a struggle against low profi tability, shortcomings in delivery reliability and poor quality results. One way of dealing with the problems is to bring out the hidden capacity in existing production systems, and increase the value-enhancing time. Overall Equipment Efficiency, OEE, is a good way of measuring how production can be streamlined based on APQ, Availability, Performance and Quality. Steps to better profitability Far too many companies expend resources on unnecessary maintenance. We analyse operational reliability, classify your machinery and establish the current situation and conditions. Based on this, operational reliability can be primed using a maintenance platform and an action plan based on your specifi c needs. We can overhaul spare parts management, oversee emergency maintenance and plan preventive maintenance, update documentation and so on. Execution and total service In addition to analysis and strategy, we can also carry out the proposed measures. This includes technical maintenance services as well as carrying out maintenance on machinery from day-to-day activities to major machine overhauls. To meet demand from companies looking for an external partner to develop and assume responsibility for the maintenance process and personnel, EuroMaint has developed the Total Service Concept, TSC. We offer: Strategic development/streamlining of maintenance processes Analysis and execution of efficiency measurements (OEE) Corrective, preventive, restorative and improvement maintenance Pilot studies Suggestions for technical design, concepts and measures Simulation Project management/responsibility for implementation Increase production with the right technique No production is static. The reasons for change may vary widely: a new product or changes to existing ones, altered legal requirements, measures from structured maintenance work and so on. In production engineering EuroMaint Industry has the necessary expertise, whether the focus is a new layout, altered flows, workplace design, control system optimisation, and so on. Create the best foundation The base is to lay a good foundation for decision-making. We have experienced teams of engineers who not only investigate, but also carry out improvements to your production system. By contracting technical assistance in production issues, you lay the right foundation from the word go. With frequency studies, flow simulations, measurement of cycle times, balancing and so on, you can be sure that any action taken will be immediate and implemented where required. With the right maintenance and technical production solutions, your company can reduce losses and increase profitability. 4

5 Component Servicing When something goes amiss in production, rapid service means large savings. Every minute is precious. With Component Servicing, we make sure you lose as little of your valuable time as possible. The right spare part, when you need it Efficient maintenance requires fast, reliable access to spare parts. In Component Servicing we offer services that help you ensure that all the parts for your machinery are available when you need them. One alternative to keeping a stock of spare parts, which ties up capital, is rapid troubleshooting and repairs to machinery components. As an independent service organisation, EuroMaint Industry has amassed a great deal of experience of repairing many different types and makes of machinery components over the years. A higher level of service An increased demand for component servicing has led to several investments to safeguard our customers needs. Delivery precision to our customers is our top priority. Investments in new test equipment, larger material stores and databases for status checks are some of the other initiatives we have taken. From its branch in Åmål EuroMaint Industry offers tension tests and vibration measurements in the fi eld to all customers with extremely large machines. Longer service life When you can no longer buy spare parts for your machines, you may be forced to replace entire systems so as not to cause costly loss of production. Instead of investing in a new control system, for instance, EuroMaint Industry can repair and service the existing one. This is to enable you to plan your investments further ahead and only replace the system once it becomes necessary for some other reason, such as higher performance requirements. We offer repairs on: Spindles Servo actuators and servo motors Electric motors of all sizes Electronics such as PLCs, NC control systems, PCBs, monitors etc. Mechanical components Measurement systems Generators Transformers The services we offer include: Troubleshooting Function tests Repairs/Refurbishment Agency/Sales New production Consultation Total responsibility for spare parts To meet the demands of companies with a large requirement for ongoing, preventive and emergency support, EuroMaint has developed agreement structures whereby we can take care of all or parts of your component servicing and spare parts management. You decide the extent of our involvement. Begin with a limited agreement, and allow it to grow as your confi dence in us grows. Contracting EuroMaint Industry as a partner for your component servicing needs brings several benefits Time gains one supplier keeps things nice and simple Access to specialist expertise An independent partner with a broad network 5

6 Automation EuroMaint Industry can offer robust, reliable, customised production equipment thanks to the company s long tradition and experience not only in machine production but also in maintenance and renovation/refurbishment. When standard solutions are not enough There are occasions when standard solutions are not the best option. EuroMaint Industry creates special equipment with high operational reliability which streamlines your production. Our long experience and independent status ensure that we can always offer the best solution. We offer a complete team in development, technical design and production, with leading specialist expertise. All to make it easy for you. We work close to your project organisation to ensure we meet your wishes and requirements. No compromise For us, special is standard. We optimise concepts without compromising on safety, ergonomics, quality, user-friendliness, availability and ease of maintenance. High quality in the machine documentation is also pivotal to enable efficient machine maintenance. Automation saves money More and more companies are bringing robots into production, aiming to implement robotic cells into existing production equipment. This enables you to increase your production rate, reduce the error margin and cut down-time caused by human factors, while also eliminating hazardous and monotonous work tasks. We offer development and production of: Special machines and production lines Automation equipment and robotic cells AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) systems IPV, In Process Verifi cation Fixtures and other accessories and peripheral equipment AGV vital assistance In the fi eld of Automation we produce Automated Guided Vehicles which are an effective, ergonomic aid in assembly applications, for example. Compared to similar systems EuroMaint Industry s AGVs are more flexible, independent and have a built-in quality assurance system. International ambitions We can also offer our customers a new measurement and analysis method called In Process Verifi cation, IPV. The system is a series of measurement stations that can detect shortcomings in quality during the production process, thereby dramatically reducing costs. The solution has also enabled EuroMaint Industry to move into the international market with a new subsidiary in Detroit. 6
