Aren’t the Stakes too High to Ignore Obsolescence?

Don’t let the obsolete motors/drives get the best of your production. For a whole generation of machines, the sourcing of identical parts is nearly impossible. Upgrade now.

Of all the equipment on an extrusion line, isn’t your extruder the essential piece? Don’t let the obsolete motors/drives get the best of your production. For a whole generation of machines, the sourcing of identical parts is nearly impossible. And relying on compatible replacements and equivalent programming is a risky venture. The stakes are high when faced with what promises to be a lengthy breakdown.

Extruder motor/drive upgrades

We offer you a motor/drive upgrade package that extends the lifetime of the extruder’s robust construction. You get peace of mind with an essential component that will continue to perform as before.
