REAL WORLD EXAMPLES
WE FIND IT. WE FIX IT. WE KEEP YOU OPERATING.
More than 36 years in the field has shown us how quickly small issues can turn into expensive repairs and unexpected downtime. Below are real examples of equipment serviced by Cantrell's technicians—showing the kinds of problems routine inspections can identify before they become major failures.
Every image below is of actual equipment serviced by Cantrell's technicians in the field.
No stock photos. No staged examples.
REAL CUSTOMER EXAMPLE
​During a routine preventative maintenance inspection, our technician discovered severe wear on the bronze worm gear inside this Frigid lowering device.
The customer had only noticed a slight "catch" during lowering and had no indication that an internal component was nearing failure.
​
​
Because this issue was identified early, the gear was replaced on-site the same day & before the lowering device experienced an unexpected breakdown or was taken out of service.
