The roadshows, first held in Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia in April, are designed to demonstrate the technologies in real life settings so users can witness first-hand for themselves the features of the tools. It also presented an opportunity for the company to learn how their potential clients prefer to use the hydraulics.
The first roadshow in Kemaman, Malaysia, organised by Enerpac SE Asia in partnership with their Malaysian distributor SLS Malaysia, was a full-day event that demonstrated the safety features of Enerpac products to an estimated number of 60 participants from industries such as mining and energy, manufacturing and materials handling, oil and gas, construction and infrastructure, power generation and maintenance.
The roadshow covered the company’s online resources, main markets, and applications of its range of hydraulic and pneumatic equipment, bolting tool capabilities, safety features and provided an introduction to their new Pneumatic Torque Wrench and X-Edition wrenches.
The Pneumatic Torque Wrenches feature torque capabilities from 1,356 to 8,135 Nm and are designed to optimise service life and minimise downtime. These square drive wrenches incorporate low-friction planetary gearboxes to minimise wear and extend uptime. They also feature commonality of motors and parts to facilitate maintenance in demanding industries.
The new X-Editions of Enerpac’s S-Series square drive and W-series low profile hexagon torque wrenches feature a more durable and safer connection between tool body and manifold. It comes with a dual plane swivel manifold that features interlocking arms to increase robustness and safety. They also comprise tough upgraded handles featuring one-piece design with metal inlays for positive location, as well as an optional ergonomic straight handle design to ensure safety and avoid potential pinch point situations for operators. During the roadshow, qualified experts from the company also provided a series of product demonstrations to give users a greater understanding of the features and benefits of each product.
“The event ran very well, and the first introduction of the Pneumatic Torque Wrench and X-Edition wrenches were well-received by customers,” said Francis Koh, sales and marketing manager of Enerpac SE Asia. “[The participants] appreciated the fact that we were prepared to invest our time and save theirs by bringing a broad range of productivity and safety concepts they could see in one place. And we appreciated their feedback, which helps us to serve them better through our wide regional service network.”
