In addition to its world-wide network of subsidiaries and partners, POMA boasts a responsive, versatile team of qualified technicians who are ready to intervene day or night as soon as a maintenance operation becomes necessary on a POMA ropeway.

With a wide range of training and experience, these experts bring in their practical hands-on know-how, skills and knowledge.

On-site troubleshooting, repair & maintenance

Diagnosis

As soon as any mechanical, hydraulic or electrical problem is detected, the team is ready to support the customer and find quick and effective solutions to keep the system up and running. They assist customers in making adjustments on a component and restarting the system, relying on their in-depth theoretical and practical knowledge of the component and the POMA technical documentation that they can consult remotely via COPILOT®.

On-site overhauls

The team, unique in the profession, is able to diagnose ropeways directly on-site, especially internationally, in order to recommend optimal overhaul operations.

Troubleshooting

The extended team includes human and technical resources from the POMA Group, with COMAG in particular, but also support from a network of qualified partners, and can therefore use its expertise for any type of troubleshooting. They are the expert eyes and arms assisting the supporting teams based in Voreppe and in the subsidiaries.  

Digital assessment report

An assessment report is produced after each intervention, first for the traceability of operations, but also to make operational recommendations to customers. The assessment report includes good practices, advice and analyses to guide customers in improving operations.

On-site troubleshootings

Unexpected incidents due to a technical failure caused by an outside event or a malfunction during operation or maintenance can arise even in the most efficient machines. In this case, responsiveness and proximity are the watchwords of our technical experts to restore the safety and availability of the system, thus avoiding downtimes that can quickly become costly.

Replacement of the gearbox in Val d’Isère

It was able to restart on Tuesday afternoon thanks to the quick actions of the station operation teams and the POMA maintenance service on site. Val d’Isère Téléphériques had the gearbox nose of the chairlift gearbox repaired. Watch this technical feat in the video: en vidéo.
