Our
Competitors:
We have some great folks and machines in our industry. Each have
summoned up a big portion of courage, invested their talent, money and
time to manufacture and market a machine that works. The production
capacities range from “shovel in” to “large loader in” and prices
ranging from a few dollars to hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Companies offering screening machines range in size from a few workers
to the giants of the construction equipment industry. Customers using
screening machines also range in size from a one man company to the
largest contractors and Armies in the world.
I am proud to note, our customer base ranges from a one man operation
to some of the worlds largest Corporations and the worlds largest Army.
We believe such a range is the result of our dedication to designing
and building a truly General Purpose
machine.
While we cannot compete well with some of the industry giants, it is
also true that they cannot compete with us in many markets. As well, we
cannot compete with the lowest price for the casual, low volume
producer, nor can the low priced competitive units compete with us for
working in a wide variety of materials.
Beginning next week we will cover advantages and disadvantages of
competitive screening plants with Orbital
Action metholodology. We will start with the small machines and
move progressively to the higher priced models.
Watch for our commentary regarding the “Box” type, sometimes called a
deck screen.
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
