Obsolete Industrial Tech

For those of us in an industrial atmosphere every day, the word obsolescence is a fact of life. Obsolete industrial motors, obsolete sensors, obsolete computers, obsolete pumps; it seems the list goes on forever.

This is where Obsolete Industrial comes in... The factory floor is typically the place where smooth operation goes hand-in-hand with healthy profit.

Therefore, downtime that is experienced for any reason whatsoever costs money from the moment it occurs until the moment production resumes.

The loss of profit adds up fast in any industrial or manufacturing environment, regardless of the product being produced on the shop floor. It is a simple equation: uptime equals money and obsolete industrial may be able to help the cause.

Obsolete Industrial, abbreviated OI, is a technology-based company mainly providing technicial information and advice regarding obsolete parts and components used in an industrial setting.

Maintenance Forums...

Production machinery of any kind performs best when it is mechanically and electrically functioning properly. This is obvious to the personnel on the floor, but any degradation of mechanics or electrics that results in reduced production will be obvious to the bookkeepers and accountants as soon as expected earnings begin to show signs of reduction.

Here comes the maintenance department, consisting of mechanics, electricians, technicians, and engineers to sort out the problem and return the equipment to full production. Unfortunately, not every troubleshooting or repair situation is easy. This is where our maintenance forums become useful.

The word obsolete comes to mind. Obsolete parts are a way of life on the shop floor. Industrial technology evolves constantly. There has been more changes on the shop floor in the last thirty years than in the previous one hundred years. Industrial computing is responsible for most of these changes.

As electronic components have gotten smaller, more technologically advanced devices have been introduced to the production floor. This rapid change invokes obsolescence. Someone get maintenance to figure out the current problem.

Obsolete components and industrial parts are a way of life for maintenance and engineering personnel and the ability to embrace obsolescence while minimizing downtime is what makes for elite maintenance.

The internet has evolved as well. The ability to track down obsolete parts has been greatly increased thanks to this trend, overall, the world has become a smaller place. Obsolete Industrial was created primarily on the demand for obsolete parts. We offer a few different options for those in need of an elusive part or component.
