Drives for Industry keeps the machines of industry moving

FOR a region such as the Goulburn Valley, where agriculture meets a diverse range of sectors, it is crucial that the machines of production have local support for supply of parts and experienced service to maintain critical production demands.

Drives for Industry has been supplying the Goulburn Valley and Murray Valley with power transmission equipment and engineering supplies for 38 years and has, in doing so, established a solid reputation for proficient service delivery and comprehensive customer service.

Predominantly supplying components in the food and dairy sectors, the business also delivers to an expansive host of clients from can and food production, refrigeration, electrical and civil engineering, hospitals and beyond.

Focused on providing service at point of need, director Glen Wilson said, “We’re always available to our customers, and we’re there to answer the phone 24/7. Our company was founded on excellent customer service and a quality range of products with expert advice. These have remained our strengths throughout the years.”

Responding around the clock, the team at DFI services the Goulburn and Murray Valleys, and the client base extends across Victoria and into Southern New South Wales. With a large modern fleet of vehicles, DFI is able to meet the urgent demands of its customers from travelling to customer sites for conveyor belt repairs, to delivering cartons or pallets of goods.

Continuing to invest in cutting-edge equipment, including a modern CNC router and knife, the team has the ability to machine engineering plastics and cut all types of rubber to customers’ drawings. Also in their well-equipped workshop, the team has a range of vulcanizing presses to be able to join conveyor belts in-house or on-site at the customer’s factory. Emphasising the strength of this collaboration, Glen said, “Our team has a wealth of technical and practical knowledge, allowing us to provide expert advice on power transmission systems, pneumatics, bearings, conveyor belts, engineering plastics and more.”
