Services Your Heavy Tech Machinery Needs Done Regularly

Sara DeSantis • February 28, 2025

Heavy tech machinery is the backbone of construction companies and industrial businesses. Whether you're managing a fleet of excavators or

operating heavy-duty cranes, maintaining your equipment is critical for smooth and cost-efficient operations. Regular maintenance not only keeps

your machinery in optimal working condition but reduces unexpected downtime and extends the lifespan of your equipment.

Here’s a comprehensive look at the core services your heavy tech machinery needs and how HeavyTech Services in Southern Ontario can help your

company stay ahead of maintenance.

1. Regular Inspections and Diagnostics

Routine inspections should be a priority. They help identify minor issues before they turn into costly repairs. A typical inspection includes checking

for leaks, ensuring hydraulic systems are functioning correctly, and examining wear and tear on parts.

Why it’s essential:

  • Prevents surprise breakdowns.
  • Ensures equipment safety compliance.
  • Boosts productivity by reducing interruptions.

At HeavyTech Services, our experts are equipped with the latest diagnostic tools to pinpoint potential issues and resolve them before they escalate.


2. Oil and Fluid Changes

Hydraulic fluid, engine oil, and coolant are the lifeblood of your machinery. Over time, these fluids degrade or become contaminated, potentially

leading to serious damage. Scheduled fluid changes keep your machinery operating efficiently.

Why it’s essential:

  • Enhances component longevity.
  • Ensures consistent performance.
  • Prevents overheating and costly engine repairs.

HeavyTech Services offers on-site fluid replacement services, ensuring convenience and reducing downtime.


3. Filter Replacement

Filters—oil, air, fuel, and hydraulic—are critical for keeping debris and contaminants out of your machinery. Neglecting filters can put equipment at

risk of poor performance or internal damage.

Why it’s essential:

  • Protects key engine and hydraulic systems.
  • Improves fuel efficiency.
  • Reduces wear on internal components.

At HeavyTech Services, we use only high-quality replacement filters to ensure your machinery operates at its best.


4. Lubrication of Moving Parts

Friction in the moving components of heavy machinery can lead to severe wear and tear. Proper lubrication keeps parts running smoothly and

prevents expensive breakdowns.

Why it’s essential:

  • Reduces unnecessary wear on components.
  • Minimizes energy loss due to friction.
  • Extends equipment lifespan.

Our team at HeavyTech Services knows exactly where and how often to apply lubrication for optimal results.


5. Replacement of Wear Components

Certain machinery components—like bucket teeth, blades, and cutting edges—wear out over time due to heavy use. Replacing these parts

regularly ensures operational efficiency and consistency.

Why it’s essential:

  • Maintains performance standards.
  • Prevents serious damage to surrounding components.
  • Ensures safety during operations.

HeavyTech Services stocks a wide variety of wear parts and offers fast and reliable replacement services in Southern Ontario.


6. Tire and Track Maintenance

For wheeled and tracked machinery, maintaining tire pressure or track tension is crucial for achieving optimal mobility and productivity. Neglected

tire or track maintenance can lead to uneven wear and possibly increase fuel consumption.

Why it’s essential:

  • Improves durability and efficiency.
  • Reduces the risk of blowouts or track slippage.
  • Enhances operator control.

HeavyTech Services can inspect, repair, or replace tires and tracks for all types of heavy machinery.


7. Calibration and Software Upgrades

Modern heavy machinery increasingly relies on advanced software and sensors. Staying up to date with the latest calibrations and software

upgrades ensures precision and can even improve performance.

Why it’s essential:

  • Enhances operational accuracy.
  • Maximizes fuel efficiency through optimized software settings.
  • Keeps your equipment competitive with current technology.

HeavyTech Services provides state-of-the-art calibrations and software upgrades, ensuring your machinery is always operating at peak

performance.
