Krifft&Zipsner presents a comprehensive service plan
A concept for maximum machine availability!

(PresseBox) - With a newly structured and holistic service plan, Krifft & Zipsner GmbH strengthens its role as a reliable partner of the international printing and finishing industry. Under the guiding principle "We move with system!", the company bundles its services in a clear organisational structure and focuses on maximum machine availability while keeping overall system costs to a minimum.
A service plan that focuses on partnership and prevention
The service plan defines a central mission: Krifft & Zipsner Service sees itself as a long-term partner of its customers – with consistent customer focus, highest quality and absolute adherence to deadlines. The goal is to minimise unplanned downtime, increase production reliability and sustainably reduce operating costs.
As outlined in the plan, the focus is therefore on preventive service measures, which the company defines as key to reducing overall system costs.
The term encompasses not only service costs for machines, but also all costs incurred during plant downtimes – such as personnel expenses or machine depreciation.
Clear structure: Three service areas for optimal support
The service plan is divided into three defined service areas:
1. Preventive service
2. Fault service
3. Upgrade service
This structure is also reflected in the central “Service House”, which symbolises the company’s holistic service architecture.
? Preventive service
Goal: Minimising downtime through planned inspections, maintenance, and operator training.
Service packages include, among other things:
System-Checks
Spare parts packages on site
Safety Checks
Individual maintenance contracts
Training for operators and maintenance teams
? Fault Service
Goal: Fast response times in the event of unavoidable failures.
The high urgency of unplanned shutdowns is particularly emphasised, as these cause the greatest costs.
Services:
Remote & Hotline Support
Spare parts according to K&Z specifications
On-site service by trained service technicians
? Upgrade Service
Objective: To maintain the value and modernise existing machinery.
The focus is on:
General overhauls
System extensions
Machine relocations
Pile turner for leasing
These measures enable customers to optimise investments and operate their facilities at a modern standard in the long term.
