Fork
Lift Trucks
An Italian
fork-lift truck manufacturer produced a range of machines
from 5 to 42 ton, used extensively in ports and container
handling. The firm went bankrupt and due to legal reasons,
the local insolvency commissioner impounded the spares stock
which remained sealed for over 2 years.
A DIAK
client operated several of these machines, and appealed for
help in sourcing parts. A DIAK engineer surveyed the key trucks,
and DIAK then created a parallel parts book by tracing back
each component to the original sub-contract manufacturer from
whom the Italian firm acquired their parts. DIAK now provides
an on-going parts service at a 25% discount to the last published
export price list.
Tractors
An Australian
crane and tractor manufacturer expanded rapidly with new ranges
of machines, built in very small quantities, but then went
into liquidation. Railyard shunting tractors previously exported
under Australian government aid grants were left without any
spare parts service. As with the Italian forklifts, DIAK created
a parts book and now provides ongoing continuity of supply
to the tractor users.
Diesel
Engines
The core component in every such machine is the diesel engine,
and DIAK's expertise covers work on the broad range of heavy
diesels found in popular use. A few to note are:
- Perkins-
the Peterborough series (all 6 and 8 cylinder units),
- ex-Rolls
Royce range (Eagle, C6 )
- Wartsila
- the Vasa 9R-10-12 series
- Dorman-
the series LA, LB, LD, DA, LE, QT, FT
- ex-GEC
grouped brands- Blackstone, Mirlees, Kelvin
- Pielstick-
and Fairbanks Morse
- Ruston
- the RK, SRK, CSRK and genset units
- Volvo
Penta - all marine and stationery application units
