The PM Program is designed to provide life cycle management of your systems and enhance equipment reliability by: • Replacing worn components before they fail • Maximizes system performance • Reduces cost of replacement • Ensures peak part quality • Decreases system downtime • Protects your investment The PM Program can be set up either by system cycles or by scheduled PM
Rebuilds Ensure Performance After tens of thousands of cycles you may have noticed your system just doesn’t perform the way it used to. Or maybe you’ve run high-temperature engineered materials and the tolerances just aren’t as tight. Key benefits of system rebuilds include: • Cost savings of at least 40% as compared to new systems • Extended life for your tool • Maximizing system uptime and performance Whether you need a total system rebuild, or a simple cleaning and inspection DME can help. System rebuilds can be performed on any brand of hot runner system and typically include: • Complete bake-out cleaning • Check and replace heaters and thermocouples • Inspect and correct wiring • Replace seals, bushings and other wear items • Clean or replace nozzle components • Check and validate all dimensions before re-assembling the system Repairs Get You Back Up Quickly Time is money.
