Revamping of existing production lines

STIM excels in executing revamping operations, focusing on the restructuring and total or partial refurbishment of industrial plants. Revamping is a highly effective solution to adapt production lines to new production or machine safety requirements without the need to completely replace the existing line when investment costs or other considerations do not justify such a replacement.

There are multiple reasons to undertake the revamping of existing, perhaps obsolete, production lines: from the goal of increasing productivity and improving product quality to the need for safety adjustments and the implementation of control systems and statistical production data detection.

Through revamping, STIM offers the opportunity to replace the technological core of the plant, adapting it to new production needs and giving it renewed competitiveness. This strategy allows maximizing the use of existing resources while providing the flexibility needed to address the continually evolving challenges of the industrial market. With our consolidated experience, STIM positions itself as the ideal partner to guide clients through an efficient revamping process, ensuring the strategic and targeted modernization and optimization of existing production lines.

Maintenance

The determining factors in selecting the maintenance strategy are both technological, aimed at enhancing machine reliability, and economic, focused on achieving an optimal balance between the maintenance cost curve and the loss curve. Maintainability analysis is becoming increasingly important in plant management, and to significantly reduce operating costs, there is a growing preference for preventive maintenance to prevent failures. STIM consistently adopts advanced predictive maintenance strategies, employing state-of-the-art detection and control instruments. This approach allows for anticipating and correcting potential issues before they manifest as failures, minimizing machine downtime, and maximizing operational efficiency.
Moreover, STIM is ready to intervene promptly in case of a breakdown, following the best practices of corrective maintenance. The speed of response is ensured, guaranteeing maximum efficiency in repair operations and optimal restoration of production activities.
Through a balanced combination of preventive and predictive strategies, STIM positions itself as a leader in advanced maintenance management, contributing to improving machine reliability and efficiency, as well as reducing overall operating costs.
