Streamline MRO for Better Productivity with 80/20 Solutions

Whether your focus is on maintaining heavy equipment or servicing precision machinery, 80/20’s T-slot aluminum framing systems empower MRO companies to optimize and modernize MRO in manufacturing  operations. You can count on 80/20 framing systems for rapid assembly, easy modification, and quick disassembly—no matter how often you decide to reconfigure. 80/20 components are built for repeated deployment without performance degradation. The profiles, panels, fasteners, and accessories you order today can be used in the future to modify existing layouts, create new configurations, or support new industrial MRO services. You don’t have to overbuild now to prepare for the future. The best part: Your MRO team only needs basic hand tools to build, with no specialized tools or training required for assembly.

Scale for the Future

Bridge the gap between legacy equipment and modern industrial MRO services by using 80/20 modular T-slot systems to integrate new technology, like sensors, cameras, and robotics, into MRO in manufacturing. T-slot channels give you the perfect spot to route and secure wires, cables, hoses, and pneumatic lines, while still keeping them accessible when troubleshooting, upgrades, or replacements are necessary.

Ensure Safe Work

Keep your team safe by incorporating required safety switches, cameras, sensors, and locks to ensure third-party and internal compliance requirements without custom fabrication work. 

Save Valuable Time

Simplify the number of vendors you work with: 80/20 is your one-stop shop for profiles, parts, and even in-house services. We save your industrial maintenance and repair team significant coordination and assembly time and make sure all your ideas come together seamlessly.

30% of MRO teams report an increase in unplanned downtime in the past year.

Limitless Configurations

There are no cookie-cutter configurations to hold you back with 80/20. Your MRO team can create and assemble whatever they need using the thousands of components and profile shapes we offer. No matter how many times you reuse a component, its structural integrity will be the same as the day you received it.

Customize for Comfort and Efficiency

Ergonomics are critical to streamlining MRO for better industrial productivity. By giving each MRO team member their own customized environment, you can tailor every workstation to specific requirements and preferences. This empowers workers to do their jobs effectively without strain, discomfort, or potential injury.

Built to Evolve

With as fast as industrial MRO services are moving today, companies should prioritize investments that will scale and evolve alongside them as technology and requirements change. Because 80/20’s modular framing systems are flexible and adaptable, you can be confident that your setups won’t become obsolete. You’ll be able to use components to support whatever workflows, processes, and technologies you bring online in the future.
