Roger Scherberg, head of production, Granlund Tools AB, said, “Reliability, energy efficiency and low noise were critical decision factors for us while selecting a new air compressor for our production needs. Our 24/7 manufacturing processes require reliable compressed air to operate and create high quality and cost-efficient tooling solutions for industries across the globe. The EG37 VFD has met all our expectations since April 2020.
