New Mentor Drive Keeps Roberts Mart Going
18/10/2017 Northern Industrial Electronics Limited
Blackburn-based industrial automation spare parts and repair supplier Northern Industrial has retrofitted a Control Techniques Mentor MP DC drive for food packaging specialist Roberts Mart & Co Ltd.The new drive replaces the old drive on a plastic extrusion machine, making collation shrink wrap for the food industry, which had started to fail pulling excessive current.
Leeds-based Roberts Mart supplies all types of printed flexible packaging to a cross-section of industries including frozen and chilled food, home textiles and tissue paper manufacturers.
Northern Industrial is a multi-award-winning provider of new, reconditioned and obsolete parts and repair services, and a licensed seller of new products from Control Techniques, Danfoss and Beijer. Sourcing from over 1,350 manufacturers, the company covers over 200,000 part numbers, holding approximately £7m in stock, and exports to customers in 132 countries worldwide.
Managing director David Lenehan said: "At Northern Industrial, our written mission statement is, 'to save the world from downtime, one part at a time...'. On the Roberts Mart production line, repair wasn't an option because of production and downtime limits so the new MP was specified. With it being a direct replacement, the conversion was made simpler and downtime minimised, ensuring reliability for years to come."
