Refurbishment centre opens

Atlas Copco's European OriginAir center has been officially opened in Belgium. The aim is to provide a single, centralised competence centre in Europe for the refurbishment of air compressors, dryers and boosters.

The centre provides all repair facilities to bring machines back to their original condition and can add product options to adapt the machine to the needs of the customer. Specialised technicians make sure machines are inspected, maintained, repaired and tested according to the same standards as new machines. The workshop area can refurbish 20 units/month, while the testing facility can test up to three machines simultaneously. Each machine is inspected on more than 50 points and all data is recorded.

www.atlascopco.com/originair has details of used Atlas Copco equipment. Customers can see the status of their machine and request more information. Details are also provided about Atlas Copco's buyback programme.
