Overstock/Refurbished Industrial Equipment: Advantages

Do you know the advantages of overstock/refurbished industrial equipment?

The choices when you buy industrial automation equipment are varied. Do you buy new? Overstock? Refurbished? Do you consider repairing your current part?

The age of your factory automation systems and the availability of parts will drive some of these decisions. OEMs give limited options for older legacy systems. And the longer a system remains in use after legacy status, the more challenging it becomes to source quality replacement parts.

Here at AX Control, we stock a wide range of professionally refurbished, repaired, and reconditioned automation parts from companies like GE, Eurotherm, and Reliance Electric, just to name a few. We inspect, clean, test, and bring every piece of legacy equipment in our inventory back to proper working order. Only then is it placed into our online inventory.

7 Common Types of Transformer Protection Systems

Transformers are well-protected against faults, but they can still happen and cause big headaches. Read on to learn about transformer protection systems.

Transformers are an essential tool for voltage manipulation in all distribution systems. In addition to transformers being among the most critical components in distribution, they are also the most expensive. This makes repair and replacement an incredibly costly endeavor—and one that needs to be undertaken quickly.

Everything You Need To Know About Motion Control Systems

Motion control systems are essential to the automation industry, and there is a lot to learn about them! Read on to discover what you need to know.

Motion control systems have a long history—much longer than you may expect! Perhaps the earliest case of a motion control system dates back to the 1780s, a system called the flyball governor. While this motion control system had nothing to do with computers, almost all modern motion control systems use computers to supervise the process. Read on to learn everything you need to know about motion control systems.
