Installations within the field of signalling systems have a long life time, but at the same time they must guarantee a high availability all along. Failures would cause interruptions of the operational procedure and thus high expenditures.
It would cause a lot of trouble, if spare parts are urgently needed but no more available, and the manufacturer stopped the production. This would result in expensive reconstruction works of the whole system.
For this reason, the aspect of the long-term supply of spare parts should always be considered when making the decision on the technology to be applied.

Scheidt & Bachmann possesses the necessary competence in this field. We warrant a ten-year supply of spare parts with original or compatible components for all signalling installations (level crossing and interlocking systems) being newly mounted by us.
Furthermore, in most cases we are also able to offer the required spare parts for the different formerly applied technologies and to reproduce them, if required. The necessary production capacities and a big spare parts store are available for this purpose.
Of course, it is also possible to repair components at our works in Mönchengladbach, if ordered by the customer. For the repair of components the same test and quality demands will apply as for our production of new parts.
