Summer 2008 Preventative Maintenance (PM) Service Special

Often overlooked is the benefits of regularly scheduled Preventive Maintenance (PM) Service. Benefit from down time when it's convenient, and not during peak production!

With the ever growing usage of stretch wrap, GAP Services has observed that:

More units are going into branch plants and warehouses which do not have in-house mechanics or electricians to do regular preventive maintenance on equipment, which is required so as to guarantee uptime and to not void warranties.
With the advances made in the industry, units are becoming more complicated and expensive, resulting in higher service bills for repairs if regular preventive maintenance is not performed.
Even companies with their own in-house staff often do not have the expertise to maintain and fine tune a pre-stretch system which can result in wasted film usage and the shipping of unsecured loads.

GAP Services has designed a PM Service during which a factory trained service technician will check your wrapper (no matter what make), and perform the following operations:

Oiling, greasing and lubrication (materials supplied).
Tighten all nuts, bolts, gears, chains and electrical connections.
Check for wear and abuse damage.
Check and recalibrate all systems to guarantee maximum operating and film use efficiency.
Check and report on all consumable and moving parts.
Test line voltages and amperage draw

For a limited time we are offering reduced rates on scheduled PM Service and resultant Follow Up Repairs. Certain conditions apply. Please contact your GAP Services representative for further details.

We BUY and SELL used, end of lease, and excess stock Stretch Wrapping equipment. Please see our stock page for details on our current offering. If you have something to offer, contact us with details!

We install what we sell! From the defined types of installations described below, to a customized scenario, we have the well trained and experienced people necessary to get the job done right.

System Startup - Where the customer or a third party installer does the mechanical and electrical installation, and one of G.A.P.'s technicians arrives to perform the system power up, make necessary adjustments, run production trials, and provide training to operators and maintenance personnel.

Supervisory Installation - Where a G.A.P. technician arrives along with the equipment and assists the customer or a third party installer from the point of unloading the equipment, through mechanical and electrical installation, performing the system power up, making necessary adjustments, running production trials, and provide training to operators and maintenance personnel.

Turnkey Installation - Where a team of G.A.P.'s own technicians arrives with the equipment and provides the full installation services from unloading to training.

Often an older machine can be made more reliable and/or economical by retrofitting major subassemblies while retaining the bulk of the machine. We commonly retrofit Film Carriages, Cut/Seal mechanisms, upgrade PLC's, etc.
