On The Spot Precision Engineering.
Here you have it. The sleeve labeling machine has been restored back to better than new condition. It took 3 days. One day to acquire the information on how it works, and develop a plan. The 2nd was lost because when we got the new part it was wrong. So I had to design a new part, have it made and install it to see if it is going to work. The 3rd day I spent ripping all of the junk out of the machine and wiring it back to its original intended operating condition. On the first day I put it back into service this machine machine had a 20% increase in output per shift. It was putting out more finished bottles than at any other time in it's prior history with us. I have not had to go back to work on it since that time. I have hundreds of examples where I have had to reverse engineer a system to discover it's original intent, then design and engineer the new circuits and/or parts needed to bring the system back to square one.
All though I can design mechanical parts and electrical systems, my strongest suite is intelligent purchasing. I can often times buy the new parts I envision to solve the problem. I can get the best price on the best quality. I use the phones, the Internet and the 400 plus MRO suppliers with, which I have open accounts. I manage all of my accounts in Microsoft Outlook. I use Word, Excel, Adobe Photoshop, and Windows programs to communicate with vendors.
