Reducing the total cost of ownership

The discussion will examine an often-overlooked influence on machine performance: the cumulative cost of inadequate cooling.

Dust and debris accumulating in cooling packages can create problems that extend beyond overheating, affecting maintenance demands, productivity and operating costs.

For equipment owners, the session will explore how cooling decisions can influence uptime, component life and total cost of ownership.

Lee Armstrong

For manufacturers, it will address the challenge of balancing greater machine performance with lower fuel consumption, reduced noise and more compact engine compartments.

The panellists will also consider how increasing automation changes thermal management requirements, particularly for machines expected to work longer hours with less human intervention.

Attendees will have the opportunity to submit questions during the live session, with time reserved for audience Q&A.
