Happy Holidays from the NECI
Family
|
|
It is with
humbled appreciation that we thank each of you for the
opportunity we have had to work with you over this past
year. Long ago, our company adopted the philosophy of being
“like a family” While like any family member, sometimes you
see our spots, but in the final analysis there is nobody
better that you can count on when needed most. I personally
hope that you have found that as the case with us this year
when working with us.
2008 will bring
with it some exciting new features to serve our customers
better. During the 1st quarter we plan to unveil
our new website that is being designed to provide technical
and cost estimating tools to benefit engineers in developing
and estimating projects. We will also expand the
capabilities of our e-commerce purchasing tools which will
allow customers to search and purchase equipment on-line
from us 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. And later in the
year we plan incorporating customer order status information
on our website to keep you up to date on your projects
status.
Our offices will
be closed at noon on December 24th and all day
December 25th for Christmas. As in the past, our
automated telephone system will page those on call to answer
any emergency calls. Our offices will be open all day on
December 31st.
To all of you
and your family, our family here at Nelson, wish you the
warmest and safest Holiday.
Merry Christmas
The NECI Family

Grocery Store
Chain understands the
Ups and Downs of Business |
|
The County Market knows all too well what is
required to serve the consumer. Good
products, affordable pricing, and abundant
inventory on well stocked shelves is the key
to the retail grocery business. That is
easy when you can get your product to the
shelves. That all ended one day abruptly
when the Aging Vertical Reciprocating
 Conveyor
(VRC) they had finally gave up its last
breath. This unit served at the dock level
and brought product down to floor level and
also took reserve stock to the upper level
mezzanine. When it quit working, everything
had to be manually handled off the dock to
get it into the store. And forget trying to
get it up the stairs. It was a nightmare
that would not end for all employees
involved.
NECI’s customer development manager, Susan
Hutchinson paid a visit to the store and
discovered the problem. Acting quickly, she
had the application surveyed and began
working toward a solution. That is when
more problems where discovered. The old VRC
lift had been installed before the dock and
building walls were built. There was never
any forethought of how you would get it out
of the building. That problem fell on the
shoulders of the NECI project manager. This
required NECI technicians to “cut” the
existing lift into pieces that could be
handled and moved out of the building
through the dock doors. NECI application
engineers worked with Wildeck (Milwaukee,
WI) to create a design for a new lift that
not only would meet the application
requirements but could be received and
installed in the tight space constraints.
A solution was designed and the entire
installation including the old VRC being
removed and the new Wildeck VRC installed
was completed in 3 days.

New Project
Estimating Tool for Engineers now Available
|
|
Hytrol Conveyor has developed a handy project
estimating tool to help Engineers and Management to
quickly develop project cost estimates for conveyor
systems. This tool is developed around Hytrol’s 24
hour shipment inventory and also provides
installation estimates so that a quick snapshot can
be taken of a project.
This in no way replaces Nelson’s field engineering
support services but will allow individuals to
establish cost justification perimeters quickly so
that a project can move forward quickly. In
addition, since it is based around a quick delivery
inventory by Hytrol, engineers can identify products
that will meet the need of the application as well
as the time constraints.
For your free copy of this estimating tool, please
contact Susan Hutchinson at
shutchinson@nelsonequipment.com. Please provide
your name, title, company name, mailing address, and
telephone number. The booklet will be mailed to
your attention. |
