About Lehmann Instandhaltungstechnik
Lehmann Instandhaltungstechnik GmbH (LIT) is a service provider specialising in industrial maintenance for plants and power stations. The company carries out assembly management, revisions, new installations, repairs and maintenance of plant components as well as preventive maintenance, annual services and tailor-made maintenance concepts. Core competencies include the revision and overhaul of turbines (Pelton, Francis), piping construction, welding and steel construction work in its own workshop, as well as the assembly and disassembly of heavy components such as spherical valves up to 50 tonnes. Quality assurance encompasses documentation, assessment of plant conditions, factory acceptance tests at suppliers and non-destructive testing. Customer industries include hydropower plants and renewable energies, power stations including nuclear power plants and interim nuclear storage facilities, industrial plants, mechanical and plant engineering, as well as chemicals, pharmaceuticals and food. The company is a member of the Cobinet corporate network with more than 30 technology companies, operates throughout Switzerland – especially in mountain regions – and abroad, and is led by founder Norman Lehmann.
