Gough Engineering, the Newcastle-Under-Lyme-based material handling expert, has launched a new hire service for food manufacturers to integrate sieves, screens, and separators into their production lines. The service provides businesses with the chance to test the equipment before making a big investment. Companies can also profit from the support and consultation of Gough Engineering to help overcome production issues and ensure a good return on investment (ROI). By offering access to their range of industry-leading vibrating sieves and separators, the company is enabling food manufacturers to benefit from the latest technological solutions.
Comprehensive Assessment
As part of Gough Engineering’s hire service, the team provides a comprehensive assessment of each customer’s needs before supplying their machinery. This includes classifying and sieving products in their on-site laboratory, allowing them to tailor their advice and ensure the most effective material handling solutions to suit each hirer’s needs.
The equipment available as part of the service includes various advanced solutions: the Gough linear vibratory screen (GLVS), the Gough Batch Sieve (GBS), as well as the Gough Vibrecon Vibratory Separator (GVC) and Gough Vibraflo Vibratory Screen (GVF).
Renting your Equipment
Stephen Harding, managing director at Gough Engineering, explained that “with the option to ‘try before they buy,’ businesses can be assured they are investing in the best bespoke material handling solution for their requirements. The hire service is ideal for manufacturers that are either developing a new production process, completing a temporary production run, or expanding their line.”
Renting equipment to suit your purposes offers several financial benefits for manufacturers, removing the upfront cost of buying equipment outright and reconfiguring purchased machinery. Using rented equipment as a ‘test’ installation ensures that the hirer can adequately assess the equipment’s performance before committing to a long-term investment.
Confidence and Quality Assurance
As technological advancements continue to be made in food manufacturing, confidence and quality assurance are becoming ever more critical. Harding went on to speak on the importance of getting it right, stating, “ineffective screening might lead to an entire product batch being compromised, with dire consequences for the manufacturer’s bottom line.” By enabling manufacturers to rent their machinery for short or long commitments, Gough Engineering is providing access to technology at the forefront of the industry, which can ensure they produce high-quality, cost-effective products.
