When a machine starts to lose performance, many automatically think of replacing it. But the reality is that many teams still have a lot of potential. That’s where the RIMCO CAT Rebuild program comes in.
A rebuild is not simply “fixing” a machine. It’s a complete process designed to restore performance, reliability, and productivity to your equipment, while extending its lifespan and reducing long-term operational costs.
What is a Rebuild? Rebuild is a deep rebuild of equipment or key components such as engine, transmission, or power train. During the process, specialized technicians inspect, disassemble, recondition, and replace critical parts using genuine Cat® parts and factory standards.
The goal is clear: to get your team back to work with the performance they need to keep producing.
How does the rebuild process work?
1. Complete Equipment Assessment – It all starts with a detailed inspection. Fluids, maintenance history, overall condition, and equipment performance are analyzed to create a customized plan.
2. Dismantling and inspection – The equipment is completely disassembled. All parts are inspected following strict reuse guidelines. Worn or out-of-spec components are replaced.
3. Refurbishment and upgrades – Engineering improvements, upgrades, and replacements are made as necessary to restore efficiency and reliability to the equipment.
4. Reassembly and testing – The equipment is reassembled and goes through performance testing to ensure it meets Cat standards before returning to the® field.
5. New life for your team – Many teams come out of the rebuild ready to work for thousands of additional hours, with better performance and greater reliability.
