What is a nameplate?

Your equipment nameplate is its identity card. It usually includes the manufacturer, model, serial number, production date and configuration details.

Why does the serial number matter?

The same machine model can use different parts depending on its production year, batch, and configuration.

Serial Number gives you a more precise part match for your exact machine configuration.
