The kptec spindle pool
20/11/2021
Professional storage and immediate availability of your spindle
If your spindle breaks down, you will need to move quickly – a replacement spindle is the optimal solution here. But when it comes to ensuring this is ready to use immediately, correct storage plays an important role. With the kptec spindle pool, we offer an optimal model that will help you cut costs at the same time.
Many cutting mechanics from the automotive and series production sectors hold replacement spindles – here, every second counts. Unfortunately, these replacement spindles are often stored incorrectly. The spindles are stored behind the machine in a cold warehouse, and in the worst cases, the spindles are unable to be located at all.
The keyword here is delivery: A direct courier will be on hand to begin the process of delivering your spindle from the moment you request it. kptec will arrange for the spindle to be delivered within a maximum of 24 hours after it has been requested from the spindle pool. In most cases, however, the spindle is with the customer much faster.
The kptec team will also be happy to support you in optimising your maintenance costs. A number of customers are already making use of this offer to great effect.
How? It’s really quite simple:
Many companies have multiple production sites, but these sites are organising and carrying out maintenance independently of one another. In many cases, this leads to multiple replacement spindles being stocked at each factory or location. This is where kptec comes in. We provide support in this regard and work together with the various locations to develop a stocking strategy. This enables different locations to access one and the same spindle type in the kptec spindle pool. This will help reduce the number of stocked replacement spindles, which in turn will lead to significantly lower maintenance costs and capital commitment costs. Your maintenance and purchasing departments will always have the benefit of an overview thanks to the ability to access the stored spindles online.
