CARRYING OUT KOWA (Komatsu Oil Wear Analysis)
4
KOWA is a maintenance service that makes it possible to prevent machine failures and downtime. With KOWA,
the oil is periodically sampled and analyzed. This enables early detection of wear of the machine drive parts and
other problems.
We strongly recommend you to use this service. The oil analysis is carried out at actual cost, so the cost is low,
and the results of the analysis are reported together with recommendations which will reduce repair costs and
machine downtime.
