Sales engineers, Lee Pitts and Adam Elliot, will be demonstrating how Mechan is developing handling equipment that meets demand for faster maintenance times, without compromising safety. They will also introduce congress delegates to the European innovations for which the firm is the local representative, including the handheld laser measuring device, CALIPRI. Lee said: -This is our first appearance at the annual Cost Reduction Congress and we are looking forward to meeting key contacts from train operating companies worldwide.
