Sprint Electric Select Direct-Industrial.com as Distributor for DC Drives

Blackburn, UK, February 24, 2010 -- Direct-Industrial.com, a leading online distributor of new, used and obsolete industrial automation equipment has been appointed distributor for Sprint Electric’s range of analogue and digital DC drives. Under the distribution arrangement Direct-Industrial.com will hold significant stocks of the full range of Sprint products, which will be available for 24hr despatch as required, with pre-sales support and after sales service.

Founded in 1987, Sprint Electric designs and manufactures industrial motor controllers, specialising in DC drive technology. DC drives are complex electronic products that can precisely control the speed of automated process machinery. With over fifty models available, the Sprint Electric range of DC Drive offers a wider choice than any other manufacturer with variable speed drives ranging from 0.25kw to many hundreds of Kilowatts. Larger KW DC Drives are ideal for controlling DC motors used in heavy industry applications such as metal working, steel mills, mining, or the cement, rubber and plastics industries.

“We are very pleased to have the opportunity to work alongside Sprint Electric, who have an excellent reputation for manufacturing the highest quality DC drives,” explained Direct-Industrial.com's John Joe McGonagle. “It is no secret that many drive manufacturers have chosen to abandon existing DC drive users and instead focus on AC drive technology. This has left many of our customers anxious about the future of their production lines. Working with Sprint will allow Direct-Industrial.com to provide a wide range of affordable replacement DC drive solutions”

“Sprint DC drives have always had a reputation for quality, technical innovation and value for money. In many ways the partnership with Sprint provides a perfect extension to what we already do at Direct-Industrial.com. We are happy to be able to offer our customers the best of both worlds – value for money without compromising on support," adds Stuart Park

Gary Keen who heads Sprint Electric’s sales department, says: "Direct-Industrial.com is a well established and competent organisation and an ideal partner to help us achieve our market and sales targets. Their team of engineers are available to evaluate applications, providing technical assistance and professional advice.”
