Integrated Solutions
In today’s demanding, evolving and rapidly changing environment, the need for a reduction in complexity and
the efficient use of resource whilst maintaining technological and competitive edge ensures we stay alert to the
challenges in product development. Failure to challenge the current state means our competition move ahead, gain
market share and erode margins as we battle to retain business through pricing.
This brochure is designed to demonstrate the capability of Parker Hannifin in the reduction of hidden costs
associated with your product, its development, assembly and time to market. Parker Hannifin systems provide
increased efficiency, reliability and accuracy.
The philosophy of integrated systems is simple and demonstrated below and is the concept and innovation behind
