All Torque and Recopak in Business World Australia

Recopak approached us to see if we would like to be involved with their article in Business World Australia, a digital business magazine.

You can see the fruits of our efforts here...

All Torque and Recopak go back a long way and it was nice to be asked on this one.

Australia Day

All Torque will be closed for Australia Day (January 26th) but will be back to work for Friday.  We are a bit cheeky in Melbourne because Melbourne Cup Day is also a public holiday locally and that is held on the first Tuesday in November, so most people take the Monday as well and turn it into a loooong weekend.

Can't be too greedy I suppose!

All Torque's Christmas Closing Scenario

Preston branch will be closing from Friday, the 23rd of December so we can play a bit of cricket.  The re-open date will be Tuesday the 3rd of January, 2012.

During this period, all calls will be transferred to Braeside, where Rob, Gail and Ernie all have the honours of getting up early after New Year's Eve.

English Electric Motors

Not content with giving the world bangers and mash, black pudding and mushy peas, the English were at the forefront of electric motor design.  The only problem is, some equipment still coming across our counter is the original English sizing, which doesn't fit directly with a NEMA replacement or an IEC equivalent.

Retrofitting has been around for ages and we are getting very good at subbing the old blighty equipment with a modern-day equivalent when required.  The funny thing is, I know which of the two will still be around in 50 years with everything else being equal.

Melbourne Cup

If stopping a nation isn't enough, the whole of Melbourne goes to sleep for what amounts to a four-day weekend when the Melbourne Cup comes around every year.  The first Tuesday in November is a major event on Melbourne's calendar and the streets are nearly abandonded during the running of the event.

Traditions abound; such as having a barbecue with friends and family, a cup sweep that the same person seems to win every year, running late to work on Wednesday and Rob drawing the short straw and being the only one to work across both branches of All Torque Transmissions.

Good on ya Rob.
