Korsch, a specialist in tablet press technology, has opened a new facility on its Berlin manufacturing campus to support the continued expansion of the company's global Certified Pre-Owned Equipment Program. Complementing this new development, Korsch's US facility in Massachusetts has expanded to include four service bays to support Certified Pre-Owned equipment projects for North and South America.
The German company maintains an inventory of Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) equipment supplemented by its equipment trade-in programme. The programme supplies equipment for the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, food, confectionary, technical, or chemical production sectors.
All KORSCH Certified Pre-Owned machines are meticulously inspected, refurbished, fully tested and certified for operation by a team of experts. Korsch says its CPO equipment delivers the same trusted performance, output, and efficiency as new KORSCH machinery.
Refurbishment
The CPO Group operates in a dedicated facility on the Korsch campus in Berlin, with a team of mechanical, electrical, and software engineers. Using genuine Korsch OEM parts and the latest wiring and controls, including a Windows 10 platform, all KORSCH CPO machines are restored to exemplary operating condition. For example, on the company's XL series of machines, compression columns are rebuilt and all wear parts and seals are replaced. The result is new machine performance at a significantly lower price point.
Korsch ensures that all necessary cleaning validation documentation is provided for any machine acquired by the CPO Group, and all equipment is supported by a limited six-month warranty on mechanical and electrical components. A fully updated documentation package, including assembly drawings, spare parts lists, manuals, electrical schematics, software licenses and validation protocols, is offered with each Korsch Certified Pre-Owned machine.
The tabletting specialist offers comprehensive on-site commissioning support for all Certified Pre-Owned Equipment, including installation, calibration, execution of validation protocols and training certification.
Trade-in programme
The Korsch CPO Group is always interested in surplus Korsch assets, and offers highly favourable trade-in credit when a used Korsch machine is exchanged for a new Korsch model.
