Quick Bites: Massive Machines

Tune in for our first webinar, called Quick Bites: Massive Machines. This is the first in the series where we explain our processes and innovations to keep our customers informed.

Transcript:
"Hello. Hello. Everyone welcome to Better Engineering's first webinar, and it's called
Quick Bites, and it's on our Massive Machines. I’m going to start with introductions. My name is Cami Jones, and I’ll be your host today. I've been at Better Engineering for about three years now, and I've been loving every second of it. All right, Ryan, would you like to start?"

"My name is Ryan Hiss. I'm the vice president of sales and marketing for Better Engineering. I've been with the company for about nine years, and over the course of that nine years, I've sold many massive machines. And I think one of the coolest parts about selling this type of equipment is the parts that actually go into the system. So these massive machines will clean things like rocket engines and missile silos, and massive diesel engines. So once these things actually get installed to see these parts come in and out of the system, it's pretty mind-blowing."

"Michael?"

"Yeah, my name is Michael Jones. I'm a mechanical project engineer here at Better Engineering. I've been here for about two years. I'm a certified solid works expert, and I enjoy using that skill set, as well as my abilities in project management, to help our customers tackle their most difficult design challenges. Thank you for including me in this panel today."

"Carl?"

"Good afternoon. My name is Carl Martin. I work in the sales department. I've been with Better Engineering for over 30 years. I am currently semi-retired, working about three days a week. I started out in the electrical department. My background prior to Better Engineering was Motor Control, I started building electrical control boxes. From there, I went into customer service, did troubleshooting, parts ordering, and visiting customers to help them with their machines. Then I got into sales, and I've probably been in sales for about 20 years. During the 20 years, I have seen many major manufacturers such as the automotive, big automotive, and aerospace people down to little companies like transmission shops. I would say the highlight of my career was going out to see Jay Lennon at his garage and putting the machine out there, showing the operators how to use it, and also taking a tour of his garage."

"Nice, and if customers would like to see that, we have a video on our YouTube. All right, Jeremy?"

"Hey everybody. I'm Jeremy Salkin. I'm the Director of Operations here at Better Engineering, and before that, I managed the engineering department. Before that, I was a mechanical project engineer. So I've been here for over ten years. I've designed lots of really large machines and seen lots of them come together, so I'm really excited to talk about them today."

"Nice to hear. All right, we're going to start with this webinar by discussing just our machines and just the vastness of them. Ryan, can you speak to our massive machines?
Yeah, so as I mentioned, I've sold a lot of these massive machines over the course of my nine-year career with better engineering, and they can. If you look at batch washers or turntable washers, the turntable diameter can get as large as 200 inches in diameter. The height can be 200 inches high. Our convey washers can be about 16 feet wide, and they can clean a whole array of parts right. So, some of our big systems are actually designed to clean rocket engines. So you know, parts going into space, in particular rocket nozzles, also barrel panels for the space industry. That's also that's another common part that will go into these systems on top of really just massive parts like diesel engines, you're talking like 20 feet long and, you know, 15 feet high. So, you know, these massive parts washers are designed to clean a lot of different types of parts."

"Nice. Jeremy, you've been with the company for a while. You've been one of the great minds behind many of our bigger machines. Do you have any that you've worked on? Are there any notable ones that you've seen us build?"

"Yeah, absolutely one of the ones that I actually designed. I may be a bit biased on that. Still, it was one of my favorites that was actually an almost 100-foot-long system that required a conveyor and a monorail system built into one really long continuously run machine. So one side of it handled really big cast metal parts and the other side of it handled the plastic dunnage that these parts were transported on. So that was a really, really neat project just in the scale of it. It was so long we had to break it into lots of different chunks to ship it and install it. It was a really, really neat one."

"So is it typical to put these machines or different systems together like this..."
