TRANSCRIPT
Our approach to every overhaul programme is the same — treat each one differently
Our local support services and resources provide the highest level of client service and world-class performance and reliability with OEM materials and repairs to return your assets back to revenue service faster, while reducing your overall cost of ownership.
We customise each overhaul to provide the best and most comprehensive support, while optimising the total package to meet client operational and financial targets.
So, whether you are looking for a short-term ‘material and labour’ overhaul or a longer-term collaborative arrangement, UGL has a solution that meets each operator’s evolving business requirements.

OverhaulELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT
Safe, efficient, cost effective solutions
UGL’s workshops are the only GE certified workshops in Australia for the overhaul of AC & DC rail components
Electrical component and overhaul services are provided across a wide-range of Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM’s) components for both EMD and Siemens.
Commercial test capabilities of our AC & DC back-to-back test bays ready overhauled equipment for return to service.
UGL offers a complete solution for the overhaul of passenger and freight rail applications including cleaning, overhaul and repair, VPI, painting and testing of:
• AC & DC traction motors
• Air compressor motors
• Alternators
• Ancillary electric motors such as water pumps and clutch drives
• Blower motors
• Dynamic brakes
• Generators
• Radiator fan motors
In 2013, UGL overhauled in excess of 300 EMD components from fleets across Australia, including:
• Traction Motors - D29, D77, D78 and D87
• Alternators - AR10 and AR11
OUR SERVICES• Armature rewinding and repair
• Brush change-out and repair
• Dynamic balancing
• Manufacture of cable assemblies
• Motor and circuit board thermal imaging
• PdMA motor diagnostics
• Stator rewinding – form and random coil
UGL’s support services provide an end-to-end asset management solution designed by maintaining asset value and reducing the need for capital expenditure.
Reliability and qualityAt UGL we continually strive for improvement in service delivery
Motor reliabilityUGL is currently working with multiple clients to improve in-service reliability of their electric motors by:
• Working to improve overhaul specifications for specific applications
• Providing dedicated engineers who complete FMECA analysis on motor fleets and deliver direct feedback on technology improvements to OEM’s
• Tailoring maintenance solutions and motor overhaul plans
In partnership, these projects have delivered improved reliability results through:
• Improved asset availability
• Fewer in-service failures
• Lower cost of long-term overhaul
All service work conducted is completed in-house at UGL’s facilities to assure quality of outcome. Our processes are subject to rigorous continual testing and refinement in order to provide the best possible outcome. UGL’s skilled workforce uses fit-for-purpose machinery controlled by Australian Quality Assurance (QA) and business management systems.
Repair and overhaul facilities at Broadmeadow, New South Wales; Mackay, Queensland; and Bassendean, Western Australia are open for inspection to view first-hand ISO9001:2008 accredited QA systems which feature:
• Strip-down and assembly (Broadmeadow)
• Design control and specification management under a systems engineering framework
• Motors inspected and certified by independent Quality Control Inspectors
• Motor overhauls completed in line with OEM maintenance instructions
• Components and sub-assemblies, sourced through accredited suppliers
• Motor testing by trained technicians
All electrical component repairs and overhauls receive a Certificate of Conformance to Australian Standards.
All motors tested are fully document and include a test certificate.
Rotables exchange planUGL is developing a rotables exchange programme to meet operational needs in respect of Australian GE and EMD fleet availability. Using a rotables exchange model, clients have access to a pool of UGL spares to temporarily replace a motor coming out of service for repair or overhaul.
Flexibility and convenience
Multiple service centre locationsUGL workshops provide the same high level of quality and competitive pricing through:
• A client focused, experienced maintenance workforce
• An efficient and timely turnaround of motor overhauls
• GE approval and certification
• Mobile repairs
• On-site cleaning, blasting, baking ovens and paint facilities
• Technical support and asset management
UGL can facilitate suitable transport to and from all service centre locations.

UGL has an established, tailored maintenance programme of time-based examinations, supported by carefully managed time and duty based overhauls. Designated service intervals minimise outage and significant failure events. Our comprehensive maintenance programme helps to increase life cycle asset availability and reliability.
UGL aligns maintenance activities to an asset’s usage patterns to maintain operational requirements.
The key to achieving these optimal results is the use of Reliability, Availability, Maintainability and Safety (RAMS) techniques. On introduction to a new motor, UGL will monitor the key attributes of the asset with respect to its operating duty cycle and adjust the service interval subject to an engineering review.
OUR SERVICESThe services within an asset maintenance programme may include:
• Component Change Out (CCO) and overhaul
• Field service support providing periodic reliability checks
• Inventory, logistics, and site expenses
• Maintenance management and planning, including technical support and reliability management contract administration
• Scheduled services at agreed intervals
• Unscheduled maintenance covering components and materials not supported by a scheduled maintenance or CCO programme are changed on condition and in service failures
UGL’s full maintenance offering can be both scheduled and unscheduled. Maintenance plans are tailored to the individual requirements and can be accomplished through a joint workshop to discuss and align with operational business needs.
Optimising motor availabilityUGL provides complete maintenance plans to protect valuable assets
