In recent years, PSI Repair Services has seen a noticeable increase in repair projects from the transit industry. A large number of these repairs involve older technology and specialty parts that the OEM no longer manufactures, sells or repairs. In many instances, these aged parts are causing premature and catastrophic failures. And, due to funding constraints and long lead times for new train deliveries, many transit agencies have opted to continue operating these older trains, which can double the planned life of the original equipment.
The good news is that PSI offers the transit industry a wide range of services, including repair, modification, failure analysis, corrective action and remanufacturing. Our reverse-engineering expertise allows us to successfully repair and/or remanufacture obsolete parts. PSI can also modify end-of-life parts with current, commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) parts that operate more efficiently, run cooler and have increased uptime. Cost-saving services like these have saved our customers millions of dollars in reduced maintenance expense.
