AMC & After-Sales Support
A galvanizing plant is always exposed to conditions of heat, chemicals, and machinery, which all deteriorate with time even with proper handling. In order to ensure that any potential problems do not lead to unnecessary shutdowns, an annual maintenance contract (AMC) can be signed, which would take care of scheduled inspections and maintenance. After-sales service provides technical assistance in case of unforeseen circumstances within the maintenance period.
What This Service Covers
- Scheduled preventive maintenance visits for kettle, furnace, and crane systems
- Inspection and servicing of control panels and electrical systems
- Priority technical support for breakdowns or performance issues
- Wear-part monitoring to flag components approaching replacement
- Documentation and maintenance history tracking for compliance and planning
- Remote troubleshooting support where issues can be diagnosed without a site visit
How It Fits Into Plant Operations
Once a plant is commissioned, equipment doesn’t stay in peak condition on its own kettle walls thin from repeated heat cycles, crane components wear from continuous load cycles, and control systems can drift out of calibration. The AMC performs routine inspection of this equipment to ensure that the wear is detected during a scheduled inspection rather than becoming an unplanned breakdown during production. After-sales service provides the bridge between the scheduled inspection times and gives plant personnel access to someone for troubleshooting any problems that may arise unexpectedly.
Why Work With Us for AMC & Support
Generic maintenance schedules don’t account for how your specific plant actually runs a plant running three shifts wears differently than one running a single shift, and equipment usage patterns affect how often things genuinely need attention. We build maintenance schedules around your actual production intensity and equipment list, so visits are frequent enough to catch real wear patterns without turning into unnecessary, cost-adding checkups on components that don’t need them yet.
Who This Service Is For
This is relevant for any plant we’ve commissioned, as well as existing plants looking to formalize maintenance into a scheduled program rather than reactive repairs after something fails. It’s particularly valuable for higher-volume operations where unplanned downtime has a real production cost.
What You Get
An AMC typically includes a defined visit schedule, priority response times for support requests, and a maintenance log that tracks equipment condition over time useful both for planning replacements ahead of failure and for demonstrating maintenance diligence if compliance audits come up.

Frequently Asked Questioned!
What's the difference between an AMC and one-off repair support?
An AMC includes scheduled preventive visits built around your equipment and usage, while one-off support addresses issues as they come up without a planned maintenance calendar in place.
Does an AMC cover parts replacement, or just labor and inspection?
This typically depends on the specific contract terms some AMCs include wear-part replacement, while others cover inspection and labor with parts sourced separately.
Can after-sales support handle issues remotely?
Many issues can be diagnosed and guided remotely, though some problems require an on-site visit depending on what’s actually wrong with the equipment.
Is an AMC only available for plants you've installed, or can you support other setups too?
This depends on the specific equipment and plant configuration reach out with your plant details and we can assess whether ongoing support is a good fit.
