SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
For a better service and maintenance workshop
Darkness, dust and dirt, or the lack of a computer to access current information - these are comments often made by employees in service and maintenance workshops. In many cases, the working environment in these workplaces is perceived as anything but attractive, but this can be remedied.
The main requirement for a service and maintenance workshop is flexibility, as many different types of work are carried out here. It should also be a mobile workplace, as a lot of the work is carried out on site. In our workplace solution, we go through common problems and provide relevant solutions.
The result is Type Workplace Service & Maintenance - a purchasable total solution for those who want a service and maintenance workshop suitable for today's modern industrial environment.
Our approach to finding the right solution
Have you ever experienced problems such as poor lighting, back and neck pain, or a workplace that is difficult to adapt to different people and needs? These are some of the most common problems in assembly workplaces across industries.
To help you solve the problems, we work based on the Gigant model - a proprietary method in three steps; analysis, solution and deployment. In step one, we define the problems and improvement opportunities that exist in your workplace, where we at Gigant can come out to you and do this on site. Based on these three steps, we develop a solution, and in step three we deploy and evaluate it.
When you buy a Typeworkplace, there are two ways to go. Either you choose a ready-made solution where much of the work is already done and can be easily adjusted to your needs.
If you have a particularly unique problem that requires a more complex solution, we also have the option of conducting a thorough analysis of your needs and then tailoring the solution.
Whichever route you choose, the result is the same: an end-to-end solution tailored to your needs that optimizes your entire workplace in one go. A simple way to increase profitability.
With over 30 years of experience, we know what works
Over a long period of time, we have accumulated knowledge about what makes a good industrial workplace. When we develop our workplace solutions, we therefore do so based on the problem areas where we have our expertise and where we know which are the most common problems, areas such as noise, ESD or load ergonomics, etc.
Our areas of competence are the expertise that drives us to a solution, which we land using the Gigant model.
For service and maintenance, we work according to the following problem areas
Ergonomics of loading
When many of the tasks are carried out in the field, it is important to create good ergonomic conditions both in the fixed and mobile workplace.
Candles
In a service and maintenance workshop, many different people work on different tasks. The lighting therefore needs to be adapted to what they are working on, but also to their height and age, for example, as this can affect how well they can see or how close they want their lighting to be to the work surface.
Material handling
There is never a regular flow of similar components passing through the service workshop, but a great deal of variation.
Shielding
In an industrial workplace where people, materials and forklifts are constantly on the move, it can be difficult to relax and feel at ease. That's where the right shielding makes a big difference.
Noise
Machines and tools create both high noise levels and lower sustained noise. Both risk harming workers, but in complete different ways. There are several solutions available to create a better and quieter working environment.
5S
In a service and maintenance workshop, there are often a lot of tools and the need for a functioning 5S structure
Storage
With a large number of components available, good and well thought-out storage is essential.
Lifting
Lifting is one of the most common causes of workplace injuries. Therefore, good lifting aids are needed to ensure that lifting is done correctly.
Leakage
Various chemicals are commonly used in the service and maintenance workshop, which requires knowledge of handling and storage.
