PREMAS® – Preventive Maintenance Service

PREMAS® is the brand name for AUMUND’s After Sales strategy including inspections, technical trainings, consulting, and PREMAS® 4.0 predictive maintenance. PREMAS® preventive inspections always have the task of helping to maintain the efficiency and therefore cost-effectiveness of machinery and equipment over long periods, and often result in enhanced performance.Unnecessary downtimes are minimised or even eliminated. PREMAS® inspections contribute to increasing servicelifetimes of machines and components, give early indications of requirements for spare parts, and make recommendations forpossible conversions. Only if conversion is not a viable option new equipment might be recommended. As a result of on-site inspections of AUMUND, SCHADE, SAMSON and other manufacturers’ equipment, customers are expertly informed and advised on questions of maintenance, spare parts supply, process optimisation and conversions.

PREMAS®

• Inspection
• Consulting
• Training
• increasing customer satisfaction

Vision and Mission
Reactive or insufficient maintenance often leads to unplanned stops, high costsand reduced production. Planned and predictive maintenance leads to proactive avoidance of shutdowns. A predictive maintenance strategy keeps machines at a high level of productivity.

Task and Objective
is to become the preferred provider of preventive maintenance services for all kinds of bulk materials handling machinery, providing inspections, training, spare parts and consulting to the cement industry, power plants, iron and steel and many other key industries.

Inspection reports provide a basis upon which customers can order spare parts, upgrades or machine conversions. By extension, if PREMAS® is a preferred inspection provider industry-wide, AUMUND will become the supplier of spare parts, such as chains and belts,on third party machines.
