Everything is relative! Thanks to significant internal improvements, HMD Kontro can now deliver the more complex engineered versions of their sealless magnetic drive pumps much quicker. Though delivery times range from sixteen to twenty weeks, this is significantly faster than some competitors currently quoting over a year!
The shortened delivery times result from the implementation of many ‘lean” developments, from order receipt and handling, to manufacturing and production. Also, a team has been assigned to examine ways of speeding deliveries and positive improvements are already being seen.
