Atlas Copco Rental Japan supplies 100% oil-free electric mobile air compressors to semiconductor manufacturer during production site expansion project.

What appeared like a simple project, quickly became a complex one. In normal circumstances, our compressors are installed outdoor, but in this case, the available space on the production site was confined. We therefore agreed to install the compressors indoor although this is never ideal. It carries the risk that, when running, the equipment heats up which would rapidly increase the room temperature. Thanks to our international network, we managed to rapidly send one of our experts to the site to assess whether the PTE compressors could be installed inside the building. Based on an extensive analysis of the specific situation and years of previous experience, we felt this would not bring any risk to the production lines and gave green light. The commissioning of the production equipment could safely take-off!

The excellent global connection with the Korean team enabled Rental Japan to import the PTE compressors and smoothly answer the demand of the customer.

The customer was very satisfied with the hands-on approach and constant care of Atlas Copco Rental Japan for the entire rental period. Morimoto concludes: “From the beginning our customer already knew that no other company could provide the air volume they needed, but sending one of our experts on site to check the possibility of installing and operating the PTE compressors indoor really proved for them that Atlas Copco Rental goes the extra mile. And that meant a lot to them.”
