Storage & logistics
For workshops and distributors, proper storage of exchange standard turbos and injectors is essential to maintain their condition until installation. These components should be kept in a dry, temperature-controlled environment to prevent corrosion or damage to seals and bearings. Organizing parts by motorization and reference number streamlines inventory management and reduces the time spent locating the correct turbo or injector for a specific repair job. Regular stock rotation ensures that older units are used first, preventing obsolescence and maintaining the freshness of your inventory. Additionally, clear labeling and segregation by condition (e.g., new, remanufactured, or used cores) help avoid mix-ups and ensure that only high-quality parts are issued to customers.
