Services Portfolio
Revco offers efficient bearing mounting and dismounting by our trained services team at $45.00 per hour.
The correct mounting technique for your application will help extend your bearing’s service life and reduce premature bearing failure and damage to the application.
Following the correct dismounting procedures prevents damage to other machine components such as shafts and housing, while also ensuring that the replacement bearing’s life-span is not compromised.
Revco offers Laser Alignment using SKF specialised equipment, carried out by our trained services team at $40.00 per machine or per hour (Consumables charged at $26.00).
Shaft alignment is a major contributing factor to rotating machinery breakdowns. Accurately aligned shafts can prevent downtime and loss of production.
Revco offers Dynamic Balancing using specialised SKF tools, carried out by our trained services team at $40.00 per machine or per hour.
Properly balanced machines improve bearing life-span and productivity, while reducing noise, operational cost and structural stress.
Revco offers Thermography using specialised SKF tools, carried out by our trained services team at $90.00 per hour. This includes the Thermograph ($45 p/h) and Report ($45 p/h).
Thermography allows you to detect problems that may not be apparently visible. This can diagnose issues and detect potential problems before they occur, while machinery is running.
Revco offers Vibration Analysis using specialised SKF tools, carried out by our trained services team at $1.60 per point and $10.00 per hour for data sampling and analysis.
Excessive machinery vibration can cause a number of serious issues, even leading to incidents that may cause damage and lead to unplanned downtime. Using multi-channel equipment for simultaneous data collection in combination with tools for data visualisation, animation, analysis and documentation, we can provide an understanding of a machine’s movement patterns and the causes of unexpected vibrations.
