Maintenance and service for construction machinery

No excavator is like the other

Construction machinery mechanics working on building construction sites service, repair or revise the most diverse equipment – from the excavator to the jackhammer up to the building dryer or dump truck. In theory, it is always the same routine, but practice tells a different story: No excavator is like the other.

A varied job with a lot of challenges

»There is no run-off-the-mill excavator, « reported the »Walliser Bote«, a Swiss newspaper. The quote was taken from the portrait of a young construction machinery mechanic who tries to win people for his job with enthusiasm and passion. His job is extremely varied, he says, and each construction machine has its own character – even if the models are identical.  Spare parts, for example, that cannot be promptly procured, have to be made by the mechanics themselves or machines have to be modified according to the customer’s requirements. But despite the exciting variety, they exist nevertheless – the maintenance and service routines for construction machines which include changing the oil in the engine, the gearbox or the hydraulic system.

Reliable oil-service valves for engines, gearboxes and hydraulic systems

Every mechanic knows how important reliable oil-service valves or venting valves are to ensure that service work remains routine work and does not become too time-consuming because of unforeseen problems. To prevent this from happening, we offer construction machinery manufacturers premium-quality oil-service valves for engines, gearboxes or hydraulic systems. Thanks to the company’s long years of practical experience in this field, Skarke valves installed in building construction machinery have meanwhile proved a real recipe for quality and reliability in oil service.

Besides our standard range, we are pleased to manufacture customised valves based on your specification.
