Pump for refurb
Pump Exchange Programme reduces downtime risk
Salvtech’s pump exchange programme, started at the end of 2022, has shown instant results by giving fast turnaround of pump repairs across UK Tissue and Board Mills. The concept is simple in that customers send in their pumps for servicing, but if they require an extra fast service they can choose to have delivered an identical refurbished unit from stock, instead of waiting for their own unit to be repaired. This means critical pump positions can be replaced quickly, reducing the risk of unplanned downtime. It also means the mills are less reliant on in house repairs and parts stock levels which have, in most cases been scaled back, over the last decade, as mills push to become leaner in their operations. This means reliable sub-suppliers are required to provide high quality, fast support. This exchange programme delivers that requirement and has been quickly adopted by a number of major Tissue manufacturers. It has been enabled by investment by Salvtech in an increased UK stock of “drop in” pump units as well as increased levels of individual spare parts to ensure high quality Duplex parts are always available.
