Rootonex specialises in structured, evidence-based Root Cause Investigations for repeated, intermittent or unexplained equipment failures.
Instead of swapping parts until something works, our investigations focus on why the fault happens — and what needs to be done to stop it returning.
Equipment history review
On-site inspection and diagnostic testing
Mechanical, hydraulic & low-voltage fault analysis
Evidence collection (photos, observations, measurements)
Identification of underlying root cause(s)
Clear, plain-English investigation report
Actionable steps and preventative recommendations
