Caterpillar and FERHM case study - EEM

Conveniently placed in a container, Hastings Deering and Caterpillar’s hydraulic hose assembly tooling solutions give operators the ability to safely build, repair, and maintain hose assemblies on-site, reducing downtime and maximising machine uptime. Formed to serve the demanding needs of heavy equipment operations across Australia, Queensland-based FERHM has built its reputation on keeping machines turning and projects moving. With a strong foundation in earthmoving and transport equipment sales and repairs across Southeast Queensland and Northern New South Wales, the company has steadily grown into a trusted partner for industries where equipment uptime is mission-critical. The business recognises that hydraulic hoses are the lifelines of earthmoving, mining, and construction machines. A single failure can bring production to a halt, costing thousands of dollars per hour in lost productivity.
