Thank you for the opportunity of introducing our company to you online.

We specialize in proactive maintenance offering Sales, Service and Training.

Our products include Precision Laser alignment and measurement systems,
for shaft alignment,  belt and chain alignment. Plus a complete geometry 
laser measurement system for measuring straightness, flatness, squareness, 
parallelism spindle direction, center of circle etc. Some of the packages we offer 
are Roll alignment (parallel) systems, extruder alignment and measurement systems, 
machine shop spindle systems., turbine and Linebore systems etc.

We also offer dial alignment kits, vibration measurement and ultrasonic inspection instruments.

Our mission is to heighten the awareness that before you can begin to maintain your companies 
assets you have to first of all guarantee that these assets have been installed correctly and with  
the use of simple instruments monitor their condition.

     We at Benchmark Maintenance Services have a strong understanding of all forms of maintenance
from the Reactive mode through to the Proactive mode. We have had training in both Reliability
Centered Maintenance and Total Productive Maintenance. However, our approach to
maintenance is simple, having spent the last thirty five years in hundreds of maintenance shops
we are convinced that the best system for the majority of maintenance departments is in that old
standby, Preventive Maintenance. Once a solid footing in prevention is achieved the next step
into a world class system is simple..

However, the cornerstone of Preventive Maintenance is in the installation or re-installation of
your equipment. We are not just talking about coupled driven machine units we mean all your
equipment. Air cylinders, gear boxes and steam generators suffer from soft foot problems just the
same as your motors do. V Belts will last a lot longer if the sheaves are installed properly and
also aligned within a tol erance. Unfortunately in the rush to get the machine up and running these
issues are often neglected.

When you can guarantee that your equipment is installed correctly you can now take simple
measurements using basic instruments such as Vibration or Ultrasonics to monitor and trend the
condition of your equipment. By taking these simple measurements you are taking control of
your equipment.

Our Core Business is training. We started out teaching Shaft to Shaft alignment using dial sets in
either Ri m and Face or Reverse Dial procedures. It has now developed into a complete
installation course. Our program is designed to be a very practical, hands on, nuts and bolts
approach to training. We also sell Dial Sets and the most economical Laser Systems in North
America. The Easy Laser. I am pleased to say it is our strong background in training that makes
the difference for us in Laser sales. We can show the end user what is behind a laser system, what
technology is being used. This leads to a clear understanding of what is being done during the
alignment process.

With the Geometric Laser System you can measure straightness, flatness, parallelism, squareness,
horizontal plane and plumb. For this system we customize the training to suit the customers
equipment. What we are trying to do with all our training is change the mind set from one that
says, "that's close enough", to one that says "it has to be done right the first and only time".
We believe if you can guarantee that the installation is done properly you can reduce the
operational cost by decreasin g the amount of energy consumption. Also, because of a reduced
amount of vibration due to the improved installation, maintenance cost will be reduced
significantly. If not the machine is doomed to failure.
