Restoring uninterrupted dairy production through agility and excellence
Laiterie de Varennes is one of France's largest dairies, churning out an impressive 90,000 liters of milk per hour. An essential cog in the country's food and beverage industry, the company relies on uninterrupted and continuous production. Yet even the most finely tuned system can face unexpected challenges. When a boiler malfunction threatened to disrupt their seamless production, Atlas Copco Rental swiftly stepped in with a rental solution.
Disrupted production
For Laiterie de Varennes, a consistent milk processing capacity is the backbone of their operations. When a burner malfunction disrupted their boiler's performance, pinpointing the root cause posed a complex challenge. Halting the production process was not an option, as the lack of steam would lead to untreated milk and a loss of production. Atlas Copco Rental was therefore called upon to deliver a rental 6T boiler with accessories to navigate this critical situation.
Minimal downtime
Recognizing the urgency of their situation, Laiterie de Varennes initiated an emergency call to Atlas Copco Rental on a Thursday. By the following Saturday the newly rented boiler was expertly commissioned. The rental period extended for one-and-a-half-month in total, providing time not only to resolve the burner issue but also for Laiterie de Varennes to conduct essential boiler maintenance.
This proactive approach resulted in significant long-term cost savings. With a well-coordinated effort, our installation team swiftly mobilized to surmount logistical hurdles and carry out a flawless installation and commissioning process. The key differentiator was our ability to efficiently repurpose and reinstall the equipment on-site. By adjusting our schedule and deploying the necessary personnel, we achieved an impressive two-day turnaround, ensuring minimal downtime for our client.
