Still worth repairing, or time to replace?
An older professional machine may be repairable, but at some point recurring faults, downtime, lack of capacity or operating costs make it worth examining the option of modernisation.
The assessment can cover
- age and technical condition of the machines;
- frequency of faults and repair history;
- downtime and its business impact;
- current capacity and utilisation;
- bottlenecks in the overall process;
- operational benefits achievable through modernisation.
An equipment assessment does not automatically mean replacing machines. The aim is to decide whether maintaining or repairing the existing machine, or looking at a new solution, is justified.

Frequently asked questions
When is it worth considering replacement instead of repair?
If a machine's age, recurring faults, downtime, lack of capacity or operating costs have become a significant business burden, it is worth comparing the cost and benefits of modernisation alongside repair.
