If it’s not broke, don’t fix it. Right? Well, that may not always be the case. Keeping equipment that is obsolete could end up costing you more than an upgrade. You will have to compare the cost of maintenance and prolonged downtime against the cost of the upgrade to decide. When a piece of equipment becomes obsolete, the original equipment manufacturer has discontinued product production. This doesn’t mean you can’t get a replacement part, but they are often limited and costly.
The following list of equipment are becoming, if not already, obsolete:
Avery Weigh-Tronix
GSE-350
GSE-375
GSE-675
PC-820
PC-821
WI-125
WI-127
WI-130
WI-1310
Fairbanks
2500
Mettler Toledo
JAGUAR
LYNX
PUMA
If you are currently using one of the listed pieces of equipment, we recommend you come up with a replacement plan. Eventually the equipment will get old and need repairs. When that time comes, replacement parts might not be available. Contact us for replacement options!
Do you ever worry your equipment may be obsolete? If it breaks or is damaged, the replacement parts could be limited and costly. Accuracy is important but what’s accuracy with a broken, out-of-date scale?
