Gardner Denver features JBS in Industrial Compressor Case Study

Gardner Denver recently featured JBS in a case study of our industrial air compressor installation at a leading East Tennessee Hand Tool Manufacturer, where we helped the client restore factory equipment reliability. The customer turned to us, as the local Gardner Denver distributor, to find a replacement for their existing Gardner Denver compressors, which they had been using for the past 30 years.

Compressed air is one of the primary utilities in any manufacturing plant where it helps drive a wide range of machines and tools crucial to the production process. Using cost-effective and dependable compressors with a unique value proposition is the best safeguard against unplanned factory expenses and unwelcome operational downtime. Being able to rely on a proven expert in flow technologies enables manufacturers to ensure their crucial compressed air needs are covered.

Hitting the Nail On the Head

This customer employs over 400 people working on three shifts, producing 9,000 wrenches and 6,000 ratchets daily. Compressed air supports a number of mission-critical processes carried out at the facility. It powers production machinery such as forging presses utilized for stamping heated metal and air tools used for polishing purposes.

When one of the factory’s compressors broke down because of its age, the customer – already familiar with the Gardner Denver brand due to the longevity of their existing units – became interested in acquiring a newer model from us. JBS worked with the customer to identify their exact requirements and decide which rotary screw compressor would best fit their process needs. A rental Gardner Denver compressor was first sent to the plant to ensure continued production and a comprehensive long-term solution was then quickly found to meet the customer’s requirements for reliability and energy efficiency.

The fact that this leading American hand tools manufacturer once again chose Gardner Denver while looking for a high-quality compressed air solution testifies to the trust our customers put in the innovative and long-lasting products that JBS supplies.
