Traditional standards for today’s manufacturing industry

Emcon staff have more than 50 years experience in the engineering industry, moving equipment both within the UK and worldwide. They pride themselves on their “can do” attitude and the ability to overcome technical obstacles, whilst meeting deadlines.

Recent clients include print and packaging firms, textile producers and engineering companies, but Emcon are always happy to consider projects, large or small, whatever the industry sector.

Safe removal of equipment

Moving heavy equipment is a specialised task, so clients will be relieved to know that Emcon employ multi-skilled staff who are qualified in electrical and mechanical engineering to work on their projects and who understand the unique challenges of moving heavy machinery and equipment. An Emcon representative will contact the client to discuss their needs, before carrying out a thorough risk assessment and writing a method statement prior to starting work. This ensures that risks to the client’s staff are kept to the absolute minimum. Naturally Emcon carries its own public liability insurance policy, together with cover for damage to equipment in transit, so clients can rest easy.

Emcon use the latest state-of-the-art lifting equipment and vehicles, including crane lorries, low-loaders and fork lift trucks. They pride themselves in taking care of clients’ machinery as though it were their own. Once the move is completed Emcon will follow up with a further visit to the site to ensure complete customer satisfaction. This attention to detail is reflected in the comments from satisfied customers on the Emcon website.

Installing new equipment

As well as removals, Emcon are happy to tackle installing new machinery for clients, adhering strictly to manufacturers’ tolerances and health and safety guidelines. Emcon has experience of carrying out complex installations, working to tight deadlines and in challenging conditions. Check out their website for testimonials left by satisfied clients both from the UK and abroad.

Repairs and servicing

Emcon offer a maintenance service for clients, visiting sites by pre-arranged schedule for routine inspections and diagnosing issues in the event of a breakdown. Service vehicles are well stocked with an extensive range of consumable parts from reputable manufacturers and high quality tools, ensuring problem-free operation once a service is completed. Worn parts can be repaired or remade, or machinery can be removed from site for complete overhaul and refurbishment prior to being offered for sale, an increasingly popular option in these recessionary times. Existing machinery can be upgraded so that it is more reliable and efficient, reducing power consumption, lowering running costs and being kinder to the environment.

Emcon works with machinery manufacturers to extend after-sales service to countries where their existing network of engineers does not reach. Manufacturers benefit from this service through higher sales, whilst avoiding the need to send their own engineers and service staff on costly overseas trips.

For trouble-free machinery relocation or installation from new, Emcon should be your first port-of-call.
