Reconditioning used distribution transformers can significantly lower the lead times for all transformers. It allows for faster turnaround times in the manufacturing process. When a transformer is reconditioned, it undergoes a thorough inspection and repair. It is in a refurbishment process to restore it to its original condition. This means that the transformer can be put back into service quickly and efficiently. Without the need to manufacture a brand-new distribution transformer.
Check out our article: “The Difference Between Rewound Transformers and Reconditioned Transformers”. That article goes into detail on what happens when a distribution transformer is reconditioned or rewound.
What this Means for Manufacturers of New Distribution Transformers
By reconditioning used distribution transformers, transformer manufacturers can reduce their reliance on raw materials. This also reduces production time. This lowers the overall cost of production and reduces the time it takes to manufacture a transformer from scratch. With less time spent on production manufacturers can produce more transformers in a shorter period. What follows is shorter lead times for all distribution transformers.
Environmental Impact
Furthermore, reconditioning transformers also contributes to sustainability by reducing waste and extending the lifespan of existing distribution transformers. Instead of discarding and replacing units that may still have some useful life left. Manufacturers can recondition them, saving resources and reducing the carbon footprint associated with new production.
Summary
In summary, reconditioning used distribution transformers can help lower lead times for all transformers by reducing the need for new production. This saves resources and contributes to sustainability efforts. Here at UTB Transformers we provide reconditioned distribution transformers. Our reconditioned transformers have a 3-year warranty.
