Siemens signs service agreement with Hunter Valley engineering firm

Siemens has entered into a
service partnership agreement with Geared Engineering in Beresfield, NSW, to
service the local coal mining industry.

Siemens Customer Service General
Manager Paul Bulloch explains that the partnership will provide local mining
operations with workshop services for Siemens’ gearboxes and mechanical drives.
Being a specialist in gearbox repair, Geared Engineering will also service
Siemens gear drives and integrated drive systems being operated across various
industries.

According to Bulloch, the
partnership with Steve Spicer and his team at Geared Engineering will
complement Siemens’ service capabilities on the entire drive train. Commenting
that the service agreement is aligned with Siemens’ regionalisation strategy to
get closer to their customers, Bulloch noted that the partnership with a local
specialist such as Geared Engineering will allow both organisations to leverage
their respective strengths to meet dynamic customer demands.

Aware that maximising
productivity is a key driver for mining operations, Siemens has partnered with
an experienced local firm such as Geared Engineering to improve response time
to customer issues and optimise the reliability of their operations.

Geared Engineering Sales Manager
Rick Shaw said his company’s expertise in mechanical power transmission repairs
would be further enhanced as a result of partnering with Siemens.

Siemens Service Manager Ralf
Lotter added that local miners would benefit from the partnership as his
company sought to support the sustainability of NSW customers by increasing
productivity and lowering lifecycle costs.
