Value preservation: Professional maintenance using original parts protects your investment in the long term.
Manufacturer expertise: Our technicians are familiar with every machine generation and work with the original design data.
Detailed documentation: After each inspection, a written condition report with concrete recommendations for action is prepared.
Annual inspection
The comprehensive health check for your plant.
Our annual inspection gives you a clear picture of the current condition of your SOMIC packaging machine. Our technicians systematically inspect your system and document all findings transparently:
- General functional check: Verification of overall function and absence of faults during operation
- Mechanical components: Inspection for functionality and wear of all mechanical assemblies
- Immediate measures: Rectification of malfunctions and faults when the necessary parts are available on site.
After each inspection visit you will receive a detailed written condition report with specific recommendations for upcoming maintenance tasks. This enables you to plan and budget maintenance measures in a targeted manner.
Preventive maintenance
Prevent downtime before it occurs
Well-maintained machines run more smoothly – this is especially true for complex packaging systems. Therefore, we offer and recommend regular maintenance by our experienced SOMIC technicians.
Preventive maintenance includes:
- Replacement of wear parts according to the maintenance schedule
- Inspection and readjustment of safety-related components
- Lubrication and cleaning of critical assemblies
- Software checks and parameter optimization
- Documentation of all measures performed
By performing regular preventive maintenance, you demonstrably reduce unplanned downtime and extend the service life of your system – a direct contribution to reducing your Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).
