Some actuators are so reliable, they get forgotten. That’s exactly what happened at a BC pulp mill running a 30-year-old Rotork electric actuator, until upgrade day finally arrived.
Our team traced the original serial number, unearthed specs beyond the nameplate, and recommended a modern replacement that dropped straight in. No “one-size-fits-all” shortcuts here!
As Rotork’s authorized distributor for Western Canada, we handle legacy swaps, retrofits, and new automation projects with boots-on-the-ground service. Our Field Techs and Account Managers will get their hands dirty, take measurements, dig through old records, and cross-reference competitor data - whatever it takes.
Moving forward, the mill will use Rotork’s IQ actuator data logging and Intelligent Asset Management program to remain proactive rather than reactive.
Got an old workhorse ready for new tricks? We’re just a call away. 🐎
