SEW EURODRIVE launches service and repair centre to close the product loop
From Creamer Media in Johannesburg, this is the Real Economy Report.
Sashnee Moodley:
Drive technology and industrial automation specialist SEW-EURODRIVE has officially launched its 17 000 m2 Service and Repair Centre to close a product and equipment lifecycle loop. Natasha Odendaal has the story.
Natasha Odendaal:
Moving beyond the manufacture and assembly of new equipment to a full lifecycle support system, the Service and Repair Centre, adjacent to the company’s Aeroton headquarters, in Gauteng, has been purpose-built for complete drivetrain inspection, repair, overhaul, refurbishment, remanufacturing and testing.
SEW-EURODRIVE South Africa MD Raymond Obermeyer…
Natasha Odendaal:
By bringing the control of the some of the outsourced services in-house, and increasing in-house capabilities, the company has complete control over every step of the repair and refurbishment process and can control the quality and the delivery.
The facility is equipped with an extensive range of advanced engineering technologies including 3D scanners, CNC machining equipment, motor winding machines, steel-bending equipment and sand-blasting and priming facilities.
The new facility also enabled the expansion of SEW-EURODRIVE’S in-house DriveAcademy, which was established in 2011.
The academy, which occupies 1 000 m² of the centre, provides immersive hands-on specialised training across mechanical, electronic and digital disciplines, as well as information technology and soft skills.
