The proliferation of centrifuges into the waste, chemical, pharmaceutical, food and metal working industry has created a demand for high quality equipment to meet current process needs and requirements.
Today, there are two basic ways of achieving your equipment needs and goals. The first and most traditional method is buying directly from the new equipment manufacturer. They provide full service including process assistance and mechanical warranties. However the customer is not getting these services free of charge. They are paying a premium for these features, which appear in high costs. There are other compromises such as:
Long delivery- Most manufactures do not inventory machines for stock. It is common to delivery times up to one year from date of the order.
Limited product lines: Manufacturers generally want to make and sell only standard models. With only a few models to choose from,
customers with special requirements often pay huge premiums for these modifications.
The other method of meeting process equipment needs is through large used equipment dealers. The benefit of this method is that used equipment dealers are not tied down to one specific manufacturer. Their concern generally is to provide equipment that will help you meet your requirements. Generally, equipment acquired this way provides you with a substantial savings over new equipment manufacturers. These dealers also can provide centrifuges “as is’ or fully reconditioned with mechanical warranties comparable to the original manufacturer. They tend to be more flexible in modifying equipment for your specific needs. Also, a few of them provide comprehensive services such as in-stock parts, start-up, field service, updating controls and drives of your existing equipment and special corrosion resistant coatings..
Advantages of buying a used centrifuge:
Cost savings of over 50% of the new price.
Immediate delivery
Trade-in allowances for your surplus equipment.
