Service expansion includes mold maintenance

Maverick Systems Corporation, a field service provider to the manufacturing, plastics, and machine tool industry, has announced an expansion of its Field Services Division.

Maverick now offers troubleshooting and repair of Injection Molding machines, including all equipment related to the molding process: Material handling, loaders, dryers, hot runner controls, robots and pickers, color mixing and material mixing equipment, cooling towers, pneumatic systems, hydraulic troubleshooting and repair, control issues, platen alignment, and tie bar inspection/replacement.

A part of this new service includes complete installation of injection molding equipment from arrival to production with a strong after installation commitment to the customer.

Maverick offers complete maintenance and repair services no matter what brand of injection molding machine a customer may have.

Maverick technicians have an average of 15 or more years of experience in installation and maintenance of injection molding machines and they continue training in the latest technologies to provide the highest quality of service to their customers.

Maverick works closely with manufacturers to ensure top quality repairs and stay within OEM specifications during an installation or retrofit.

In addition to the newest machines on the market, they also service older models that are typically out of warranty and are no longer serviced by the OEM.

"Maverick has been leading the competition in the plastics service industry for quite some time, and now with the addition of our Injection Mold Service Department, we have a full spectrum of services to offer our plastics processing customers" stated Jim Head, Maverick's President and CEO.

"Injection mold repair costs can be enormous if the equipment is not set up and maintained properly and the amount of money lost on bad product can add up very quickly.

Preventative maintenance and laser alignment of the main and secondary components is crucial in keeping repair costs at bay." Head also notes that the services offered is in direct response to the plastics industry's ever-increasing need for more sophisticated and accurate part production, which requires processing machines to be maintained better and more precisely aligned.

Vice President of New Business Development expands on the scope of the services now offered by her company: "Trying to maintain a full staff of qualified technicians can be difficult and costly to many manufacturers with injection molding equipment, and finding an outside source to provide the service is becoming more and more necessary as manufacturers try to compete in the market place.

Our addition of the Injection Mold Service Department provides these companies with a qualified, experienced resource to depend on when maintenance and repairs are needed." Maverick launched into the plastics service industry in 2003 as Spirex Corporation's field services partner.

Continued growth, a better economy, and a strong commitment to its customers has helped make Maverick a household name among Extrusion owners and is likely to do the same with Injection Mold owners.

There are also rumors about a new product Maverick will offer to the injection mold industry, and if it is as good as the services Maverick offers, it ought to create some serious buzz around the injection molding industry.
