Pre-Owned Inventory

Once perceived as strictly a way to save money when evaluating a capital equipment purchase, a growing number of OEMs and Tier One suppliers now consider remanufacturing to be a key component of their lean manufacturing strategies. And, as a result, they are achieving significant cost and production efficiencies, with very little risk.

Given the current manufacturing environment, remanufactered lines from Automatic Feed Company offer significant advantages:

• 40-50% cost savings over new equipment
• Robust built designs offer years of continued service
• Production rate capacities capable of today's demanding standards
• Much, or all, of the supporting infrastructure can be saved and re-utilized
• Updated warranty and service documentation
• Energy and raw material savings

Remanufactured lines also give you added flexibility to handle new parts or new part features, not feasible in the original design. Existing coil blanking lines can be “repurposed” cost-effectively to accommodate the industry shift to high tensile steel. And, new levelers can be added to existing lines to eliminate the material handling issues that often accompany new steel surface coatings.
