AVT Reliability Inc launches in the USA

03/04/2020

Market-leading plant reliability specialist AVT Reliability® has opened its first subsidiary in the USA. The move is part of a clear plan to expand its global reach, following the recent acquisition of Van Geffen in the Netherlands.

AVT Reliability Inc, which is owned by Rotherham-based AES Engineering Ltd, has established a base in Rockford, Tennessee, alongside sister company AESSEAL®, a large homogeneous designer and manufacturer of mechanical seals.

Customers in the USA will benefit from AVT Reliability’s Machine Sentry® suite of products, including:
  • The MSF-1 fixed sensor, which has full Hazloc certification
  • The Automated Diagnostic Assistant (ADA™), which can predict stages 2, 3 and 4 bearing failure and detect a wide range of other common fault conditions
  • EasyBrace™, the universal bracing system designed for the reduction of structural vibration in small-bore pipes.

Machine Sentry was showcased for the first time in the USA at the 24th Annual Maintenance and Reliability Conference (MARCON 2020) in March and was received very positively by leading experts attending the show.

Frederic Thomas, Managing Director of AVT Reliability, said: “We are at a turning point in our strategy and are very excited to be introducing our advanced solutions to the American market.

“We work constantly to improve the reliability and lifespan of our customers’ assets via innovative and sustainable solutions and are proud that our European customers report increased uptime and reduced maintenance and operating costs.

“We look forward to establishing the AVT Reliability reputation for added value in the USA.”
