We use:

Customer Care

To meet individual customer demands and to ensure fast turnaround times, in certain cases we are able to supply a reconditioned rock drill which can be rented until the rock drill is serviced, providing minimum disturbance to your production.

 

We also offer hire buy agreements on several models to reduce capital expenditure.

Q&A and Reporting

Each rebuild is followed by our track and trace QA service. Each drifter is given a dedicated internal reference number on the start of a strip and quote assessment and used throughout the rebuild on the drifter.

 

This internal identification number supports all job information such as parts used, machining spec. history and technical information. This history is then used to help highlight any performance issues, major parts time life and to identify any drill rig issues which may have caused drifter problems i.e. failure report. Any urgent issues found are quickly reported to the customer to eliminate any further damage to other drifters on site.

 

Depending on the customer’s requirements a Drifter repair status report (Work in Progress Reports) are generated and sent via email on a fortnightly or monthly basis, but on request can be sent weekly.
