| TYPICAL ENGINEERING PROJECT: |
- After making contact with
the prospective customer, our sales representative
will submit a Request for Quote form (RFQ). The RFQ
contains all pertinent information required to review
the application's feasibility.
- Once a project is accepted by our applications
engineer, we may set up a model in the shop
for testing. The test may be video taped and
sent to
the customer for review. In addition, we may
include line layouts or other sales drawings
to reinforce
the customer's understanding of what we are
proposing. Once the design and operational parameters
are
accepted by the customer, it is brought to
the quoting stage.
- Working with layout drawings, interfacing with
the customer and any allied equipment manufacturer,
our staff begins the process of estimating
engineering
and manufacturing costs. The result is a quotation
which is always sent with a sales drawing of
the proposed machine or line layout.
- After the customer's acceptance of the quotation
and their subsequent order, our engineering
staff creates the drawing package required to
build the
system. Once the package is completed and
released to manufacturing, the engineering
staff
works closely with all manufacturing and purchasing
personnel to ensure a smooth project.
- With the impending arrival of their new system,
the customer is invited to our plant for a demonstration
with their product, their personnel are trained,
the customer accepts and signs-off on the equipment,
and shipment is then arranged.
