Bend-tech is your go-to for OEM replacement parts

OEM replacement parts

Excavators such as the Hitachi EX3600 require fenders, guards and travel motor covers to protect the inner structure of the machine.

Due to the harsh nature of operation, these components are exposed and prone to extensive damage which requires costly replacement and maintenance on a regular basis.

This doesn’t take into account the exponential costs associated with a downed machine which is not producing, which can be up to $1.5 million in lost production per day.

These costs are extremely significant especially when fenders and covers are needing replacement on a monthly basis at some sites.

When damage of this nature is occurring so regularly, profitability and reputation can take a serious hit. Often the damage cannot be avoided due to the manner in which the machines operate and the environmental factors involved in the operation.

This headache for maintenance planners is worsened by the long turnaround times of large OEM suppliers for some parts, which can often be three months or more.

This is why it is critical to employ an economical system whereby machine parts are ready to be replaced as soon as the damage occurs.
