Background

Meeting challenge with innovation for over 30 years.
They began in the early sixties, not as an equipment manufacturer, but as a producer of vinyl decals and graphic markings for what was then an emerging industry. Their early developments of thermal die-cutting techniques helped stimulate the growth of a market that never existed before.

As customer products became more complex, they developed methods and technology that required specialized equipment not available at the time.

Today, their industrial sheeter systems are state-of-the-art in design and technology, as they must be to handle the ever-growing number of new materials and products. Accuracy, speed, dependability... these are goals they share with their customers

A background of sensitivity to customer’s needs.
Producing quality products and Custom Automation Equipment at a profit can be a difficult challenge whether you're making gaskets, or vinyl decals, or hospital gowns. They understand your problems and the opportunities that can come with solving them. Their first goal is to understand what you are trying to accomplish and work to that end.

A firm belief in hands-on problem solving.
On any given day you're likely to find their head engineer, sales manager, or their president out in the plant conferring on equipment design, checking customer sample runs, or working through a new production technique. It’s an important factor in their approach to solving problems for customers.

Complete engineering facilities utilizing cutting-edge technology.
The latest CAD/CAM software is used to design equipment that often combines complex hydraulic, pneumatic, electronic and mechanical systems operated by microprocessor controls. Their emphasis on engineering assures the most efficient equipment design, even on their smallest, least complex sheeter systems.

In-house manufacturing gives them total control of development and quality.
When they put the CONTECH label on their equipment and Custom Automation System Equipment, they know what’s gone into it. They’re sure that it will perform to customer specs, and often invite customers in for test runs before it's shipped. It’s just more assurance of quality and reliability you can depend on.

Approach
 
There is a place where innovations are born daily, out of necessity, sometimes by circumstance. Where thinking and doing are so intermingled they are seldom done separately. This is a place where innovators gather. A place conducive to creativity, serving as a conduit for customer input to the problem solvers. It is a place that you can, if you listen closely, hear the wheels of progress turning, feel the genius of invention at work.

There is a mindset that assumes there will always be a solution to a problem. It is the same one that will not take "no" for an answer. This is the mindset that keeps looking after the others have called the project impossible. It is the same mindset from which all the world's greatest inventions have come. A little luck. A whole lot of perseverance. A different way of approaching a problem. This is the attitude that leads them to solutions. Sometimes customers refer to them as miracles.

There is a technology developed over the last thirty-some years that gets better with each project. Beginning in the early years of the computer, their technology is learned first hand and field proven by their customers. Electronics is a key element in their processing equipment today. It's the element that enables equipment to perform complex tasks with razor sharp accuracy. They consider it of such importance that they have their own electronic design and programming department in house. That assures a high level of reliability, and easy serviceability should a problem arise with customer equipment in the field.

There is a solution to your production problem. And it begins by giving them a clear description of what you are trying to accomplish. They want to be as close to the problem as your are. To share with you the challenge of getting the production on line. They understand manufacturing processes, and that helps them create innovative solutions to the tough problems your face. Need a machine that will cut roll material into sheets. split the sheet in two, flop them upside down, and deliver them to a stacker? They have the solution. Need a machine that will cut roll feed to screen print, emboss, die cut, and rewind the matrix? They have the solution. Maybe you just need a simple roll cutter for your shipping department. They have that too.

There is a time to take the steps necessary to accomplish your goals, even your wildest dreams. That time is now, and they have the best team you could pick to go to work on your project. For sheeting, slitting, die cutting, for embossing, screen printing, dispensing, you can count on CONTECH for the best solution. What's more, you'll probably be surprised at how economical their solution will be. That means quicker return on your investment and the sooner you will be ready to buy you next machine from them.

Think about what you want to accomplish next in your plant.
Then call and tell Contech about it.
