This year KAUP will be focusing on the fact that more and more customers are making use of the renowned, excellent "after sales service" provided by KAUP.
Holger Kaup, Managing Director, states: "Quality means much more than just supplying customised and highly reliable first class products as result of state of the art engineering and highly precise manufacturing. Quality comprises the whole scope of a company's support service towards its market partners from providing optimal solutions to how you communicate and respond to their needs in supporting their products' performance and their company's services.
Our degree of pre- and after sales service is one of the factors that make the difference".
KAUP Service Engineers are on call 24 / 7 where expert advice can be given over the telephone at the weekend and on public holidays.
KAUP Spare Part Supply is shipping any wear parts required usually within a maximum of 24 hours of receipt of the official order.
KAUP Used Equipment Service has a pool of approx. 500 attachments on stock in the 3.200 m² large service centre in Aschaffenburg. Qualified professionals can, with their many years of experience, select the used high-quality KAUP attachment best suited to the requirements of the customer. KAUP used attachments are only delivered in one predefined quality - PREMIUM QUALITY. The incoming attachment is broken down into single components and steam cleaned of dirt, oil and grease. All parts are carefully checked and, if necessary, replaced. After re-painting the attachment is re-assembled and intensively tested on the test stand. The result of our premium quality standard ensures that the customer receives a technically flawless used attachment which is as good as new and costs little money.
KAUP Rental Service offers an economical alternative to buying. Expenses only occur when the attachment is required for a special material handling task. The customer automatically receives an attachment manufactured to the latest technology. Each attachment is intensively checked, cleaned and serviced by our qualified service engineers when returned after each rental. Thus the customer is guaranteed an optically flawless attachment and receives a technically sound and reliable attachment for the complete rental period. Our range ensures flexible coverage of your immediate requirements. Daily, weekly monthly or yearly rental, full service or service upon request, different financing arrangements - in rental matters you can expect a tailor made solution from KAUP. If the customer only requires an attachment to bridge the gap until their own attachment is repaired, or have a material handling project which only requires an attachment for a short period of time, or wants to test which attachment is best suited for the material handling task, rental is the best solution - quick, simple and economical.
KAUP Cover & Care Service - improved service for efficient operation. Fork wear accounts for one of the main service cost factors. The forks of a forklift truck are constantly in contact with the load and the ground and are thus permanently subject to wear and tear.
KAUP is a trendsetter with regards to service and offer several possibilities to extend the lifetime of forks and reduce service cost.
New attachments can be ordered with an 8mm thick Hardox wear and tear plate as a precaution against fork wear. The wear and tear plate is chamfered front and back to avoid a projection edge on the forks. These can be quickly and easily replaced when worn, which is the most cost efficient way of reducing cost of fork wear.
Worn fork blades manufactured by KAUP which are still within the 10% nominal thickness limit required by DIN ISO 5057 can be built up again using our welding machine, the most modern currently available on the market. Rebuilding the fork thickness costs a fraction of a complete replacement.
Even if the fork blade shows wear and tear of more than 10% of the original nominal thickness KAUP has an alternative solution on offer. On KAUP forks the entire fork blade can be replaced by our repair centre staff.
KAUP makes service transparent and reduces your service costs.
The customer benefits - with full service and with used / hire attachments.
