Compact drives designed for Europe
AC Technology, the largest manufacturer of small AC inverter drives in the USA, has designed a drive specifically for the European market, the SCL.
Reliable motors suit unreliable conditions
The MC1000 series variable speed motor drive features a stainless steel enclosure that ensures reliable operation in harsh environments, such as those found in food, chemicals and pharmaceuticals
When it comes to choosing a drive, one of the first considerations is the ability of the manufacturer to fulfil warranties quickly and effectively.
To successfully avoid unnecessary delays and costly downtime for UK buyers, US drives manufacturer AC Technology has appointed TP Serviceco, to supply all replacement units and carryout on-site system maintenance.
Serviceco are on call 24hrs, 365 days a year for off-site repairs and their engineers can quickly reach anywhere in Europe.
Peter Cribbin, European Sales Manager for AC Tech explained that the decision to select TP Serviceco came after twelve months of research and appraisals, "From our investigations of the market place we found that the TP Group was the most professional and customer orientated service company and are widely regarded as the market leader in this area.
As part of the research process, we asked potential service providers to repair a number of drives and I am pleased to say that TP Serviceco serviced the test samples to the highest quality with a remarkably fast turnaround time".
Due to the combination of cutting edge test equipment and specialist engineers, Serviceco has the ability to carryout high tech diagnostics and advanced work as standard.
However, to ensure in depth product knowledge, a group of TP Serviceco engineers were sent to AC Technology Headquarters in Uxbridge, Massachusetts where the drives are designed and manufactured.
The trip included specific training in the repair and maintenance of all AC Tech 's drive systems and the use of AC Tech's 'Techlink' programming software.
Additional benefits for customers stemming from AC Tech's partnership with TP Serviceco include on-line tracking and access to repair status from anywhere in the world.
The agreement also allows manufacturers to specify AC Technology drives in their machines and still be covered by the service warranty, wherever the final product is used.
All repair work is covered by an additional six-month warranty. Request a free brochure from Lenze-ACTech ...
