Asia Maintenance (Hereinafter referred to as AMA) is engaged in maintenance, repair, remodeling, and overhaul of production-related equipment, as well as manufacturing of various jigs, special-purpose machines, robot systems, etc. in Thailand. In addition to the experience and know-how of the craftsmen, the outstanding service was created from a "strong commitment" to the factory.
Own factory that supports the high technology of Asia Maintenance
The company divides its internal division into three categories: "repair / modification," "non-machining machine," and "jig." The core "repair / modification" department repairs / modifies / overhauls various industrial machines such as machining centers, special-purpose machining machines, lathes, and grinders. It also accommodates retrofits.
One of the reasons why we can provide customers with repairs and modifications of high-precision machines is the experience and know-how of craftsmen with Japanese-level technology. Further, we have our own factory that supports them.
Commitment for own factory to provide the best products to our customers
"We are aiming for ‘No. 1 technological capability in Thailand’, but we are also putting focus on the factory as well," says the president of AMA. Completed in 2019, the factory has a bright and clean impression, and is filled with "commitments to provide the best products to our customers."
Commitment 1 : Floor with epoxy resin coating
Epoxy resin coating has excellent durability, corrosion resistance, chemical resistance, and waterproofing, and has cushioning properties that concrete does not have. By reflecting light, it has the effect of showing a sanitary and clean factory that is always conscious of 5 important traits (organization, tidying, cleaning, sanitation, discipline).
Commitment 2 : Clean air factory that minimizes the temperature difference as much as possible
In the QC room and precision assembly room, a precision air conditioner (PAP) that thoroughly controls the room temperature, is installed to keep the condition at ±1℃. In order to further enhance these effects, we used a double-structured wall with heat insulating material that adopted the Japanese construction method. In addition, by making the building away from the outer wall of the factory, temperature control that is not affected by the outside air temperature is realized.
Commitment 3 : A movable gantry crane is installed that can handle heavy objects
A gantry crane that can carry loads of up to 3 tons is installed in the factory. Efficient and optimal utilization is possible by using a gantry crane instead of a general overhead crane.
Full of commitment unique to AMA on the soft side as well
The president's commitment is not limited to factory equipment. In order to make customers happier, high value-added services unique to the company are provided.
Commitment 4 : Submit work report to customer
After the work, a report containing data of before and after is submitted. In addition, after repairing the shaft head and spindle, we perform trial runs such as thermal displacement, temperature change, vibration, etc. with our own test run device according to the customer's usage conditions and submit a report with data. Due to this commitment, the machine is in a state where the customer can use it with peace of mind after delivery.

"New style of maintenance" aimed at Asia Maintenance
The president explains the reasons for these commitments. "First of all, I want the staff to work comfortably in a clean environment. And I wish to depict the message that this factory will make the next generation engineers feel that ‘maintenance work is actually a cool job.’”
Furthermore, as a hope for the future, he continued to say, "If any customer looks at our technology and may benefit, they are welcomed to utilize it in their internal usage." This is because "we stand with our customers on the same ground and work together to carry out maintenance", which is the president's belief of ‘the ideal relationship between customers and the company.’
From this factory, Asia Maintenance aims to realize the ‘ideal way of maintenance’ in Thailand.
