Burckhardt Compression delivers engineered solution to maximize uptime for major Brazilian steel producer

Burckhardt Compression has successfully engineered and delivered a comprehensive compressor overhaul solution that significantly enhanced reliability and uptime for one of the most efficient integrated steel-producing complexes in Brazil.

When a critical Laby® compressor at the customer’s facility experienced performance issues -, component wear, and tight scheduling constraints - traditional third-party support failed to resolve the challenges. Burckhardt Compression Brazil stepped in with a proactive, expert-driven approach: rapidly diagnosing the problem, leveraging in-house compressor assets for parts, and executing a technically robust overhaul that met both commercial and technical objectives.

Key Highlights:

• Rapid response and expert engineering: Issues identified and resolved ahead of schedule with high-quality components.
• Superior operational results: The compressor now runs smoothly with increased reliability and availability.
• On-budget delivery: Project completed within tight financial and timeline constraints.

What the customer says: "After facing significant challenges, Burckhardt Compression Brazil stepped in and provided exceptional support. Their team was proactive, knowledgeable, and committed to finding solutions that met urgent needs. The review of our Laby® compressor was completed on time and exceeded our expectations. The machine is running smoothly, without any issues, and we are now discussing further improvements with Burckhardt Compression. Their expertise and dedication have made a significant positive impact on our operations."
