Compressed Air for Production Managers

Compressed air is invisible until it fails. Then your line stops, your shift falls behind, and you are explaining lost output to the board. We stop that from happening.

What Production Managers Cannot Afford

1

Unplanned downtime from compressor failure

A compressor failure during production stops your line. Every minute of downtime has a cost in lost output, idle labour, and missed delivery commitments. The compressor is invisible until it is not.

2

Slow response from reactive contractors

Your current contractor might take 24 to 48 hours to attend. Your production cannot wait that long. The gap between a breakdown and an engineer arriving is your most expensive window.

3

Air quality issues causing product defects

Moisture, oil mist, and particulates in compressed air cause visible defects in painting, coating, packaging, and surface finishing. Rework costs more than prevention.

What You Get from Working with Airmech

What you need

Frequently Asked Questions

How fast can you respond to a breakdown during production?

Sub 24 hours as standard. For critical production assets, we agree specific attendance windows at contract stage, typically two to four hours during production hours. Contract customers get priority over ad hoc callouts.

Can you align service visits to our production schedule?

Yes. We schedule planned maintenance around your production calendar. Major services during planned shutdowns, minor checks during shift changes or non-production windows. Your line uptime is the priority.

How do you prove reliability is improving?

Quarterly reports track breakdown frequency, repeat fault rates, and response times. At Costco, we reduced repeat faults by 43% within year one. We measure the same metrics for every contract.

What if we need temporary air during a breakdown?

We supply, deliver, and commission temporary compressors to keep your production running while permanent equipment is being repaired or replaced. We handle the logistics so you focus on production.
