CWST’s Onsite Component repair and overhaul services

November 2, 2020

When machinery, critical components and complex moving parts break down or start developing operating problems it can be detrimental to business. Lengthy downtime, hefty shipping and export costs and a potential loss of business to name a few issues, especially for companies with large machinery and structures out in the field. Therefore, here at CWST, we offer a complete onsite component repair and overhaul service to our customers.

Why is an onsite component repair and overhaul service important?

Most of our clients work in the aerospace, oil, gas, chemical and power generation industries. This means that often the systems and components that develop operating failures or need to be serviced are too large or integrated within structures out in the field such as wind turbines or Steam Gas Turbines. An onsite repair and overhaul service is important as it saves having to bring in specialist equipment to transport the machinery or part which can be costly and time-consuming. This also saves on potentially high shipping and logistics costs as well as lengthy downtime.

Having an onsite component repair and overhaul service is particularly important to us so we can ensure we protect our customers’ critical components where ever they are based providing the best service possible with the least amount of disturbance to their operations.
