Performance Services

Our global chain of services

When you work with the Nord-Lock Group, you get much more than our innovative bolting solutions. We add value throughout your project and make sure that your selected bolting application pays back multiple times.

Nord-Lock Performance Services will assist you in identifying ways in which your company can increase its competitiveness. A Performance Services project can be initiated to solve a specific problem or to create an overview of possible improvements. Each project is designed to meet your specific needs and we can investigate current applications as well as future designs to find the most suitable solutions. We perform Junker test up to M48.

Our skilled engineers can create a complete overview of the bolted joints and related installation/maintenance routines in your company, application or process and thereby find possibilities to improve reliability, to rationalize and increase profitability. The project results are presented and exemplified from the Return of Investment (ROI) and Life Cycle Cost (LCC) perspectives.

Sourcing

Utilising our unique knowledge and tools, we can assist you in generating a complete and detailed design view of your bolted connections and securing methods. Our many years of experience enables us to evaluate any reliability issues along with providing cost justification. The entire purpose is to increase your applications’ profitability and productivity, along with other total cost savings derived from optimized bolted joints.

We have several tools available to ensure that you get the most cost-effective solution. However, the best way to achieve reliability and cost optimization is through a mutual discussion, so that we can learn about your specific challenge.

Whether you are facing a specific bolting challenge or are considering an upgrade to your current solution, we will be able to assist you.
