Prove Energy Savings Before Purchase

Looking to improve the energy efficiency of your manufacturing processes without committing capital upfront? Hiring a Variable Speed Drive (VSD) on a short-term basis offers a low-cost way to assess potential energy and cost savings.

If the results meet your expectations, you're welcome to place an order for a new drive upgrade. If not, simply off-hire the equipment when you're ready—no strings attached.

Advantages of Hiring VSD Panels - Especially in an Emergency

Emergencies require swift action. When essential machinery breaks down or fails, downtime can be both costly and highly disruptive to productivity. Our hire drives are the ideal solution if one of your drives fails, or if you simply need a back-up for critical applications.

We offer same-day delivery to most areas of the UK, helping to minimise lost production time. In addition, one of our fully qualified engineers can attend your site to install and configure the hire drive for you.

Our Hire Fleet inventory ensures you get the control you need —precisely when you need it most!

Why hire instead of buy a VSD Drive Panel - especially in an emergency?

Hiring Our Variable Speed Drives – A Fast, Flexible Solution

Facing an unexpected drive failure can put your business under serious financial pressure. Instead of buying expensive equipment outright, our Variable Speed Drive (VSD) hire service gives you instant access to the latest Mitsubishi technology without the need for significant capital investment. You can be confident your machinery is in safe and reliable hands.

Hiring a VSD is the perfect solution for short-term, seasonal, or semi-permanent applications. You can easily increase or reduce your process capacity as needed, and you won't have to worry about the costs of storage or maintenance.

This flexible approach allows you to scale your operations without a long-term commitment. Once your issue is resolved, simply return the equipment, avoiding any unnecessary ongoing expenses.
