Our Competitors, part two. Nomenclature:
|
When
discussing variables between machines intended to perform similar
functions, names of the machines and their components become important.
Each party in the game likes to know that their customers are able to
compare equally. Therefore names become common in use. The word
nomenclature is used to describe industry related names.
Names
used with various machine types and companies usually are developed by
the company or person first introducing the product. A great example is
that most folks in our industry are familiar with the name “Bobcat”
which was the name coined by the Melroe brothers when they introduced
their first and industries first compact loaders over fifty years ago.
It has become an industry success story beyond expectations.
Even
now, workers and owners alike tend to call out, bring the “Bobcat”,
knowing that their skid steer loader may be a Case, a John Deere, a
Caterpillar, a Gehl and so on.
We start discussing screening
plant manufacturers products with probably the most common name used,
it is a Box Screen. It is usually the simplest and lowest cost of all
screening plant offerings. It is quite basic, a shaker or vibrating
screen wire deck placed on top of a three sided box.
As we
climb the ladder of features and options, many box screens have methods
of transporting, conveyors to carry materials away or fingers to help
with clogging problems all built in to the package. Each manufacturer
describes their products and features well, using industry acceptable
nomenclature when possible.
Orbit Screens, Inc has coined the phrase, “Orbital Action” to describe the methodology used with orbit screens. While specific to Orbit screens, it is nomenclature in the making.
Happy screening,
