8 8 Field service: close proximity and a fast response Time for maintenance? Need a repair? A quick diagnosis is required in order to arrange for the necessary measures. Our service specialists in more than 80 countries provide quick and competent support.

9 9 Properly maintaining and repairing machines requires comprehensive know-how of all drive and control technologies. The more machines you have and the more diverse they are, the more diicult it is to accomplish this task using internal resources only. On the other hand, you also do not want to increase complexity by relying on external partners for individual machines and technologies. The solution is field service from Rexroth Service Factory Automation. Our dense service network minimizes distances and ensures fast response times. After all, every hour, and in some cases, every minute, counts when downtime is experienced. A defective component in a critical processing station can lead to downtime for the entire manufacturing line and be very costly. When time is of the essence, our hotlines, which are staed with trained consultants, can save you valuable time in answering your questions. We will troubleshoot for you and assemble and commission components and modules. Our specialists will also consult with and assist you if you want to implement new production processes. This reduces startup times and allows you to implement reliable processes that much sooner. We can likewise assume all of your fluid management tasks if required.

10 10 REMAN: fast, eicient, as good as new Why wait until a machine breaks down? It often makes sense to replace wearing parts or defective components as a preventative measure during scheduled breaks in production. This way you increase the availability of your plants with minimum outlay. Bearings, seals, and even modules have only limited useful lives. A breakdown can lead to expensive machine downtime, which usually occurs at the worst time possible. Replacing these components as a preventative measure oers several benefits, since new components minimize the risk of plant downtime, boost machine capacity, and increase production security. You can also better plan your maintenance budget while avoiding unexpected surprises. This also applies to electronics and software, which are becoming ever more complex. We ensure that your PC hard-ware is always up to date while maintaining control programs by installing updates and new functions. This allows your machines and plants to stay up to date with current technology for many years. We oer a standardized process for an entire range of components and modules as part of the REMAN program. Simply send us your old module and we will provide you with a completely refurbished and reconditioned replacement that has a full product warranty (REMAN plus) and oers the security of a new product.

12 12 Retrofit: a second life for your production lines Machines often come with a basic mechanical structure which is designed for a decades-long active life. What ages far more quickly is their automation system. With retrofit measures, you can extend the useful life considerably and save yourself the costs of a new investment.

13 13 Despite product overhauls and regular maintenance, all machines and plants eventually reach a point at which their productivity simply cannot compete with that of modern machines. A viable and economical alternative to buying all-new equipment is frequently to commission professional technicians to implement retrofit measures or modernize the assembly from A to Z. As a lifecycle partner, we assist you by oering comprehensive consulting and profitability analyses. Frequently, retrofit measures are all that is required for critical modules to reduce outlay and machine downtime with complete retrofit kits that oer 1:1 replacement solutions. This applies to actuators as well as control hardware, whereby retrofit kits take over the existing command syntax and provide greater freedom with additional functions. Extensive modernization is particularly beneficial for large plants and special-purpose machines.
