Rotoflow, an Air Products business, has opened a new Solutions Center in the Qingpu district of Shanghai, China to better serve the turbomachinery needs of customers throughout Asia.

The Shanghai facility will repair and service rotating machinery to serve the Asia market utilizing a local supply chain. The new Solutions Center is equipped with state-of-the-art diagnostic, testing, balancing and machining equipment. The Center also will provide assembly and part cleaning as well as optimize and troubleshoot equipment.

“Rotoflow is excited to open to our new Shanghai facility. This new Solutions Center is an example of Rotoflow’s commitment to the region and will help Rotoflow meet customer needs and project demands quickly and efficiently,” said Aimee White, General Manager, Gardner/Rotoflow & Standard Products.

Shanghai will be Rotoflow's fourth global hub, complementing existing hubs in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania; Houston, Texas and Dhahran, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. In addition to Rotoflow’s Solution Centers, for additional global coverage in key industrial hubs, Rotoflow has dedicated field service technicians strategically located around the globe.

The facility, which will be staffed with production technicians, machinery and operations engineers, a machinery designer and a customer care specialist, will also be used to build new equipment for HPN Plants and support Air Products equipment for H₂ for Mobility. In addition, the Solutions Center will service turboexpanders, centrifugal compressors, reciprocating compressors, cryogenic pumps, small steam and gas turbines, gearboxes, fans and blowers.

The Turbomachinery Solutions Center will service and repair all brands of expanders – not just Rotoflow equipment.
