In a bid to enlighten Guyanese on how to protect and preserve their diesel engines, Swiss Machinery hosted a ‘One Stop Diesel Exposition’ last Saturday at the Georgetown Club.
The intention of the exposition was to introduce proven systems from the United States of America in the form of quality parts for diesel engines and filters.
According to the Managing Director of Swiss Machinery, Harold Beharry, the exposition was a major success. He said that a number of companies attended and showed interest in the products on display that can be used to improve their engines that operate within a number of sectors.
Some of the companies that attended were Bosai Minerals Group, Bauxite Company of Guyana Inc. (RUSAL), GuySuCo, Guyana Power and Light (GPL), Massy Gas Products, Baracara Quarries Inc., Courtney Benn Contracting Services and AGM Inc.
He said that one of the high points of the exposition was the live demonstration of a purification system, whereby it was shown how hydraulic fluid and engine oil can be purified and recycled.
It was explained that the oil that is used by vehicles and engines will pass through a special filter and supply cleaner oil continuously into the system. This enhances the effectiveness of the oil used. The Clean Air Fleet Company manufactures a filter for this purpose.
Beharry said that this presentation was very well received by attendees to the exposition. At the event were representatives such as diesel engineers and experts from the KMP Brand of products, Separ Filter and Clean Air Fleet, who met and answered questions posed by customers.
Meanwhile, engineers attached to the machinery firm made presentations on the Cummins engine brand, Fleetguard filters, which are recommended for the Cummins Engine, Wix Filters, Mahle Original, Garrett, Pro Diesel, Bosch, Delphi, Denso, Zexel and Stanadyne.
Swiss Machinery was established in 1975. The company believes that over time diesel parts and engines have been neglected, and with the help of international partners chose to show how the life of diesel engines and equipment including vehicles and generators could be protected.
Swiss Machinery is the sole authorised distributor for a number of international brands of diesel parts. One of its suppliers makes the Separ Filter, which is a filtration system that will make engines healthier and reduce the need for regular visits to the mechanic. The company is offering its customers the possibility of having less downtime, while reducing cost for operation.
Moreover, if there are products or parts which Swiss Machinery does not have in its local inventory, the company can import the part needed by customers into Guyana within 24 hours using Swiss’ very own express service, HAB International Inc. (Hab-It).
