A vessel’s commercial efficiency in port and its safety at anchor or alongside depend directly on the performance of critical machinery on its deck, such as cranes and winches. These complex mechanical and hydraulic systems, which are constantly exposed to heavy loads and harsh sea conditions, can lead to costly delays (demurrage) and serious safety risks even with the slightest failure. As İntermak, we ensure the uninterrupted and safe continuation of your operations by providing holistic maintenance and overhaul services covering all mechanical and hydraulic components of your vessel’s deck machinery.

• Assessment and Disassembly: The process begins with our expert team coming to your vessel to perform on-site functional tests of the deck machinery. The operational performance of the cranes and winches is observed under no-load and/or loaded conditions; hydraulic system pressures are measured, and abnormal noises, vibrations, and leaks are checked. In accordance with the assessment or planned maintenance schedule, main components designated for overhaul, such as gearboxes, hydraulic pumps, motors, and brake systems, are carefully disassembled and transferred to our workshop.
• Analysis and Component Inspection: Mechanical parts (gears, shafts, bearings, brake linings) that arrive at our workshop are cleaned and subjected to NDT methods for crack and wear testing. Hydraulic parts (pumps, motors, valves) are completely disassembled in our specialized hydraulic workshop, where their internal elements (pistons, seals, gaskets, etc.) are measured with micron-level precision and their wear conditions are analyzed. This detailed analysis draws the roadmap for the repair.
• Repair and Assembly: Based on the analysis results, worn mechanical gears and shafts are repaired or renewed; all bearings, housings, and seals are replaced with new ones as standard. Brake linings and discs are renewed. All internal wear parts of hydraulic pumps and motors are replaced using original OEM-quality repair kits. All overhauled parts are reassembled with high precision in a clean environment, in accordance with original assembly diagrams and tolerances.
