When materials fail, it often disrupts the entire process.
Whether it's a faulty batch, a hidden crack, or a worn component, material problems are rarely predictable. This makes it all the more important to make the right decision quickly in an emergency.
Abrasion is unavoidable when using machines and equipment. Friction between moving parts causes wear on gears, seals, and belts—and stops entire processes if no replacements are available.
If necessary, missing housings, adapters, or brackets can be printed immediately—without waiting or external dependencies.
-
Detect faulty batches early on
Testing equipment and measurement technology reveal material defects as soon as goods arrive—before they enter production.
-
Less waste through targeted control
Whether dimensional deviations or hidden fractures: automated inspection processes help to sort out defective parts in good time and avoid costly rework.
-
Be able to react immediately in case of wear and tear
For worn components such as gears or seals, suitable replacement parts are either in stock or can be quickly obtained thanks to reliable procurement partners.
-
Stay independent with 3D printing
When speed is of the essence: missing brackets, housings, or special parts can be additively manufactured directly on site—precisely to size and without waiting time.
How to optimize your processes for the long term.
The error has been fixed, but the next order is stalled. And the spare parts are still missing from the warehouse? If you want to stabilize processes in the long term, you need to identify the causes and take strategic preventive measures. Our information page offers you support in doing just that and provides valuable insights: Learn how targeted warehousing, strategic purchasing, and smart planning can not only remedy unplanned demand, but also systematically prevent it.
In addition to a checklist that you can use to check your operational processes for unplanned demand, you will also find a white paper that shows you how to ensure smooth production with predictive maintenance.
