Why retrofitting?

Thanks to Telelift’s high quality standards, our systems work extremely reliably – even after many years. Nevertheless, at regular intervals, system components should be brought up to current technological standards, for example in order to ensure the availability of spare parts and to avoid increasing maintenance costs or downtime.
At the same time, the system’s efficiency can be sustainably increased.
With a retrofit, components that are no longer readily available are replaced, with new, more technologically advanced components being fitted in their place. This means that existing systems are brought right up to date.
The benefits for the system operator are a modernised system, with the resulting increase in productivity. The considerably lower costs compared to new acquisition of a comparable system make a retrofit extremely attractive.
To a great extent, the existing hardware remains in use. The basic elements therefore remain in place, and in the case of large systems, high investment costs for creating the foundations are eliminated. In the case of a retrofit, prior agreements relating to the system mostly remain in place. Retrofits can be carried out in stages, or all in one go.
