What
is a Drive: A drive is often a key element in a complex
manufacturing process where down time can cost tens of thousands of dollars per
hour. A drive is in itself a pretty complex piece of equipment combining control
electronics and power electronics. The reliability of drives has improved
dramatically over the last decade and so has the cost of keeping them running,
but they are still operating in environments where they see extremely demanding
service and where the electrical power they work with is far from clean.
The combination of very high down time costs and the small, but real
risk of drive failure means that parts availability is critical. Argo carries a
substantial inventory in the U.S., but the first line of defense is right where
the drive is, in your own facility.
We'll be pleased to work
with you on a solution that minimizes your investment in spares while maximizing
your protection, so please give us a call. Only then can you be ready for the
next time the drive has taken too much bombardment and decides to pack it in for
a while. We"ll map all the drives in your plant, determine what parts
commonality exists and balance your stock against what we carry and can get to
you quickly.
