We recently received a written request via email: A service and repair company urgently needed spare parts for a MAN 48/60 engine – a scheduled operation at their customer’s site was about to begin. The timeframe was tight, and every minute counted.
- Request by email and quick clarification by phone
Shortly after the written inquiry, we followed up with a phone call to clarify all technical and logistical details together.
- Automated availability check in SAP
Immediately after the call – during the quotation process – our SAP system automatically checked the availability of the required parts. This allowed us to provide the customer with a reliable answer right away, without losing valuable time.
- Fast picking & packaging
Once the order was confirmed, we moved quickly: The parts were picked, securely packed, and prepared for dispatch without delay.
- Express shipping the same day
Just a few hours after the initial request, the shipment was on its way – via express delivery, ensuring that the scheduled service operation could proceed on time.
- Reliable support for our service partners
e support not only operators but also service and repair providers – with clear processes, quick decisions, and dependable logistics, especially when time is critical.
We take you through the entire process – from the initial request to final delivery!
We never would have believed that when we moved into our new built offices and warehouse in 2013 that we would outgrow it but we certainly have.
With good weather and a bit of luck we should be finished in early 2026 with a new warehouse:
- Doubling our current warehouse capacity
- An additional 130 m2 of office space for our engineering team
- An additional 130m2 of technical space for our QS department
These new facilities will help us expand our stock levels even further and give our engineering team a „made-to-measure“ facility to assist the in developing and delivering only the highest standard of components.
Stay tuned for the updates.

We have posted a few times about our stringent quality checking procedures. We ensure that all of our parts are checked for adherence to drawing and all material and dimensional tolerances.
This week we have received our latest piece of technology, a "Spectro Analysis" machine. This piece of equipment allows us to check the material of any delivered product. By probing the material the machine can identify the material and we can confirm if this matches our drawing specifications.

Today, we received 36 cylinder liners suitable for the Pielstick PC2.5 and PC2.6 engines, which have now been added to our inventory. This process begins with a thorough incoming goods inspection to ensure that only absolutely fit-for-purpose components are made available to our customers.The liners are carefully inspected to ensure it meets the highest quality standards. This includes checking material composition, dimensional accuracy, and surface quality.
What we do:
-Dimensional inspection: Verifying the accuracy of all dimensions and their adherence to drawigs
-Surface analysis: Checking for cracks, scratches, or other irregularities.
- Material analysis: Ensuring compliance with the specified material requirements.
Only through this precise inspection can we ensure that our customers always receive parts that are suitable and will last the required running hours.
We are always committed to ensuring the highest quality and safety in every aspect of our work – and this includes the packaging of our products.
We are particularly proud of our custom packaging solution for the pump elements of the MAN 48/60 B engine. This special packaging has been designed not only with a focus on secure transport but also with the long-term protection of the sensitive components. By using innovative materials and precise, custom-fit design, we ensure that the pumpe elements reach their destination undamaged and in perfect condition.
Our goal is to meet our customers' requirements with this solution while also offering an environmentally conscious packaging option that supports the quality and longevity of our products.
We are always happy to create added value with such innovative solutions and contribute to efficient and secure logistics.
Incoming goods inspection is a crucial step in quality assurance, especially for critical components like spring collars for inlet and exhaust valves. These parts play an essential role in engine control, ensuring the precise and reliable operation of the valves. To ensure flawless functionality, spring collars must meet the highest standards in material quality, manufacturing accuracy, and tolerances.
Our incoming goods inspection process covers several key areas:
- Visual Inspection: Initial checks focus on detecting visual defects such as cracks, scratches, or deformations. A clean surface and correct geometry are essential for smooth operation.
- Dimensional Verification: All dimensions and tolerances are meticulously measured to ensure the spring collar fits precisely into the intended components.
- Material Testing: The quality of the material is verified through hardness tests and other checks to ensure the spring collars can withstand mechanical stress.
Our comprehensive incoming goods inspection ensures that only the spring collars meeting the highest standards will be added to the stocks in our warehouse. This guarantees that each valve in the engine operates reliably – and continues to do so throughout its entire service life.
This is just one example of a relatively small part in our inventory. We apply the same thorough checks to each of our 5000 different items from the smallest o-rings to cylinder heads weighing over 1000Kg.
We pride ourselves on our attention to detail and quality processes. Get in touch with us to learn more.
