The
KISS Principle II
Last week I mentioned learning of the KISS
Principle as a young man and still believing in it today. High on
my list of design criteria when starting a new product is to keep all
components and assemblies as simple as possible while providing the
results required.
Orbital Actions Screens are, in my opinion, a very good example of
successfully applying KISS. Each major assembly is fabricated and
assembled separately. Only a few minutes time are needed add each
assembly to the collection of assemblies comprising a complete machine.
Conversely, if a major assembly needs to be removed for service later
in the life of the machine, you can have it on saw horses in your shop
in minutes.
While removal is quick and easy, the KISS Principle was applied to each
assembly so that most service requirements may be completed while the
assembly is on the machine.
By utilizing KISS, another major benefit may be realized. Please take a
look at the new, Mega Materials Management System.
By using major individual components of the Orbital Action Product line
in combination with locally available concrete products, a neat, low
cost method of marketing, recycling or providing a special select
single or blended product to your customers has become available.
KISS now becomes a channel within which we may bring you the greatest
dollar value among the many choices you have when purchasing a
screening machine.
Brads Blog, “The Finer Cut”, is another of
many
planned. Each issue will cover a topic of interest about our machines,
our industry, our customers and more. I look forward to this task and
am excited about the opportunity to broaden our communications with our
customers and industry. I invite you to return and visit from time to
time, cruising back through issues to see what I may have been thinking
of at another time.
I also invite you, our reader to contribute by offering your comments.

Happy screening
