From spare-parts room to one offer.
Most automation lots we buy are a mix of brands, generations and conditions. We bid them as they are, so you don't have to sort or test anything first.
Where these lots come from
- Cancelled or over-ordered automation projects
- Line shutdowns, retooling and controls upgrades
- Spare-parts rooms holding legacy or discontinued stock
- Integrator, OEM and distributor overstock

What affects your offer: What it is, its condition, where it is, how much there is and how it's packed. New-in-box and current parts usually bring the strongest offers, and older or hard-to-find items are welcome too.
Everything else that leaves a plant.
A recent lot.
NEW SURPLUS · FTLA full truckload of new surplus
Festo linear actuators, Allen-Bradley motor starters and Schabmüller forklift wheels, all new in box, from Michigan. We bid the whole truckload in one offer, so the seller didn't have to split it by brand.
Here are the ones we hear most.
Do you buy obsolete or discontinued PLCs and drives?
Yes. Discontinued and legacy automation is often in demand for plants keeping older lines running. We buy Allen-Bradley, Siemens, ABB, Schneider Electric and other major brands.
Will you buy a single drive or HMI?
Yes, though larger lots get better pricing. Send what you have and we will tell you what makes sense.
Do you buy complete control panels?
Yes. We buy populated control panels and cabinets whole, so you don't have to strip them first.
Who buys surplus HMIs and operator panels?
We do. We buy HMIs, operator terminals and touch panels, new in box or pulled from a line, together with the PLCs and drives around them. Send a list or photos and get one bid for the lot in 48 hours.
Who buys obsolete PLC racks and processors?
We do. Discontinued racks, processors and I/O cards are a regular buy for us, including full racks pulled during upgrades. Part numbers or photos are enough to price them.
Who buys servo motors and drives from a plant decommission?
We do. We buy servo motors, servo drives and VFDs in whole lots from decommissions, cancelled projects and upgrades, good and bad together. Send the list; we bid in 48 hours and arrange the freight.
