It’s still working. But that doesn’t always mean everything is fine.

This BVL mixer was still operating while worn blades were already affecting the machine.

Catching wear earlier can give you more control over maintenance timing, repair planning and downtime.

Notice it earlier. Plan it sooner. Reduce the risk of downtime.

Bit more movement than the factory recommended. 😅

This Kenworth’s air compressor had broken mounting bolts, leaving the whole unit bouncing around while it was meant to be doing the rather important job of supplying air to the truck’s braking system.

Definitely not a “she’ll be right” one. 🔧

Rainy day in the workshop, so we thought we’d do a little heavy lifting. 🌧️🔧

Up goes the car… while the engine & transmission stay behind. 👀

A complete engine & transmission removal underway at TAC Mechanical. Not every job is a quick fix, but that’s what the hoist is for.

🔥 WHEN A BEARING FAILURE TURNS INTO A TYRE FIRE

Breakdown on a forestry truck trailer after the wheel bearings collapsed, creating enough heat for the tyre to catch fire.

By the time we got to it, the damage had left the hub seized solid, turning the removal into a job of its own. 🔧

A good reminder of how quickly a bearing failure can turn into a much bigger repair and costly downtime.

Another tough breakdown for the TAC team. 💪
