An app which helps engineers and maintenance supervisors access pneumatic components has been launched by IMI Precision Engineering.

The IMI Norgren Express app uses patent pending technology to provide maintenance engineers with an ordering system which enables them to find and order products from a catalogue of over 100,000 part numbers. It also offers the ability to convert pneumatic parts from other competitor brands.

Using real-time information and a user location finder, the app provides a ‘buy it now’ option or can locate the nearest distributor with the product in stock, for same-day pick-up or next-day delivery.

Using QR code technology, engineers can scan the product code to receive real-time information regarding availability, price, and technical data.
