COVID-19 Coronavirus Update

Fromm is continuing to monitor the COVID-19 Coronavirus situation, and we are committed to keeping our associates and business partners healthy and safe as things evolve. Equally as important as keeping everyone safe, is ensuring that we are continuing to be easy to conduct business with.

Fromm's industrial automation team can conduct meetings remotely using the Zoom video-conferencing software platform. Please contact one of our associates for more information on how we can continue to hold meetings, perform product updates, and provide technical assistance and product selection remotely.

Benefits of this service:

• Help ensure on-time production
• Improve equipment operation
• Reduce risk of performance problems and premature equipment failures
• Reduce total maintenance costs

Many small to mid-size industrial manufacturers do not have the inhouse expertise or time to properly install or service VFDs. Whether you are setting up a new production operation, proactively upgrading a manufacturing line to avoid failure, or dealing with a product replacement after failure, Fromm has the VFD expertise required to help you accomplish your goal. We are unique because as an electrical products and authorized Rockwell Automation distributor, we can supply you with both the VFD and the extensive knowledge and industry experience needed to improve your equipment operations. Fromm specializes in VFD start-up, conversion, turn-key migration, and pre-programmed drive services.

• Keep employees safe and properly trained
• Keep your company in compliance with OSHA 1910.147

Lockout/tagout (LOTO) is one of OSHA’s annual top ten most-cited safety violations. The fines resulting from these violations cost U.S.-based companies hundreds of thousands of dollars. Citations can be easily avoided by developing a program to protect your employees while they are working around industrial machinery. Fromm’s team of experts is prepared to work with you to implement or assess machine safety programs to make your employees’ safety a number one priority and keep your operation OSHA compliant.
