Selecting Industrial Machinery: What to Compare

Beyond price — the factors that decide whether a machine works for your project.

  • Output rated under realistic conditions, not ideal ones
  • Power consumption per unit of output
  • Spares availability and lead times
  • Service support near your location
  • Automation level versus your manpower plan
  • References from existing users
  • Warranty, installation and training terms

Compare quotations on the same specification. A lower price for a lower specification is not a saving.

Wherever possible, see the machine running at an existing customer's site before ordering.

General information only — not legal, financial or investment advice. Requirements and figures vary by project and state.
