Flesch Arbeitsbühnen Flesch operates a state-of-the-art facility over an area of 11,000 m²/118,000 sq. ft. in Tuttlingen, Germany. The company’s customers use its work platforms in such application areas as commercial aircraft maintenance – e.g. for Boeing and Airbus – as well as a host of indoor and outdoor building sites where height, positioning and user-friendly operation are crucial factors. Flesch had to keep an extensive stock of various hydraulic fluids at differing viscosities in storage. In some cases, it found that temperature limits of the hydraulic pumps were being reached and even exceeded during intensive periods of use, and work sometimes had to be interrupted. Flesch switched to HYDREX Extreme, which offers a very high viscosity index. This allows Flesch to use one hydraulic fluid at all temperatures and fill all of its hydraulic systems with the same hydraulic oil. HYDREX Extreme offers superb lubricant properties and extends maintenance intervals. This leads to reduced downtime and maintenance costs. About Flesch Arbeitsbühnen: Flesch Arbeitsbühnen is an expert in high access systems and operates across Europe. It has over 150 machines and enables users to work at heights of up to one hundred metres, giving them access to hard-to-reach areas, such as the undercarriages of commercial aircraft. Customers can choose from such solutions as trailer lift platforms, scissor lift platforms, truckmounted work platforms, telescopic boom lifts and personnel lifts. Most of the machines are equipped with hydraulic systems for lifting and lowering the work platforms. The hydraulic systems need to operate quietly, efficiently and safely. “Using HYDREX Extreme gives me a feeling of security. There have been no hydraulic-related system failures in two years, and that speaks for itself,” says Flesch. “We are saving money, I am able to plan maintenance schedules more efficiently and I no longer need to think about mixing products.” Gerhard Flesch, Managing Partner, Flesch Arbeitsbühnen DownloadPDF (PDF, 316 KB) Read the Case Study The Challenge The Solution The Result HYDREX™ Expect to realize more ExploreBrand Related Resources Case Study “After a year using COMPRO XL-S 68, maintenance requests went from 42 to zero!” Meryem Kuran, Owner, Komteks Kompresör ve Tekstil Sanayi Tic.
