In its third year on the road, the Brammer mobile centre clocked up its 600th visit at British Sugar, welcoming 35 engineers aboard. The custom-built education and awareness training vehicle showcases industrial maintenance products through hands-on product demonstrations, and of particular interest to British Sugar engineers was the drive train best practice rig which highlights the improved production efficiency and energy consumption reductions that can be achieved through optimising mechanical power transmission.
Brammer and British Sugar have enjoyed a 19-year relationship and as a result of experiencing the latest maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) solutions on the day of the visit, a number of new projects have been identified which the two teams are now exploring in greater detail.
Ian Ritchie, managing director of Brammer, explained: “When we commissioned our Mobile Centre of Excellence, our aim was to engage engineers with hands-on displays that showcase the latest innovations that can add value to their production operations and maintenance.
“Our recent milestone visit demonstrates how successful this has been, not only due to excellent customer engagement, but through listening to visitors’ feedback and challenges, we have also uncovered promising opportunities to help customers improve a wide variety of operations, maintenance and energy efficiency challenges.”
At British Sugar, the mobile centre was accompanied by one of a fleet of specialist tool demonstration vehicles, which showcasehand and power tools from suppliers including Roebuck, a comprehensive range of quality tools and specialist equipment available exclusively through Brammer and Buck & Hickman.
