Irish Rail Loves ABI Repair Gear!


An interview between ABI's Willian Santos and Irish Rail's Ray Holden was published in last month’s issue of Rail Professional as well as its social media and website
https://www.railpro.co.uk/news/irish-rail-interview. It stayed in their homepage as a highlight for a full week.


With over 12 years’ experience under his belt, Irish Rail’s electronic repair facility manager, Ray Holden talked about his views on internal maintenance and overhaul of electronic rolling stock systems. He also gave advice to newcomers and education providers and shared his experience with ABI Electronics’ test and repair systems.

Ray stated that his trial of ABI equipment was a real eye-opener. They bought ABI’s BoardMaster and RevEng at the end of 2017 and saved >$20,000 thanks to the BoardMaster - and that’s the PCBs that repaired over the last two weeks alone!

"We are very, very enthusiastic about creating something special using this equipment because we know its capability is absolutely colossal. We want to get the best out of it. A year ago, and after successfully using the ChipMaster for years – I love it by the way – I learned about the high-end products from ABI. I was blown away. The more research I did into ABI’s range, the more possibilities it presented. Can it do this…can it do that…? We intend on using the BoardMaster and RevEng as an integral part of all our repairs, using the SYSTEM 8 TestFlows and software to drive all our new repair in the future.

I am delighted - absolutely delighted - with the choice we made. And from here on out we go onwards and upwards!"
