The facility includes a 200-square-meter dedicated rotor storage area.

The Tianjin service center is the newest addition to Elliott Group's global service network. Elliott Group operates 18 service centers in China, Taiwan, Japan, Europe, the Middle East, and North and South America, supported by parts depots in Japan, the UK, and the US.
