“ The goal is to help our customers become more productive , and the fact it improves the safety of operations is a bonus ,” he adds . “ It also opens this work to a broader swathe of people with different skills and abilities that otherwise wouldn ’ t have been able to access the machines .”
Digital age
Aside from its core products , FLANDERS is embracing the concept of renewing , rather than replacing , existing equipment . Built on decades of motor repair research and innovation , renewal not only reduces emissions , but also expenditure .
It also harnesses the potential to change perceptions of the industries in which it operates , with customers already experiencing positive benefits . One of its clients , for example , has recently released a study claiming that recycling versus purchasing new equipment can reduce emissions by a staggering 70 percent .
“ We fully believe in the philosophy of reuse , reduce , and recycle ,” John states . “ Companies often assume machines are no longer effective if their control system is no longer supported , but our solution provides a great opportunity to reuse existing machines . We take older equipment that perhaps the OEMs are not interested in upgrading and install a Flanders control system to bring those machines into the digital age .”
