Customer Reviews(5)
Kailas did great supplying the complete electrical controls package for our new system. After he also stepped in to assist in HMI software development. Thank you Kailas.
We appreciate Kailas's support for the weekend. The customer switched up the schedule of open machine time so we had to cut it short.
We requested a senior controls engineer to help one of our customers get their machine back running. Kailas exceeded our expectations and helped our customer with exactly what they needed. He is very a well versed Siemens controls engineer and can handle anything you throw at him in an efficient and timely manner.
Kailas and his team did a great job of modifying some redlined drawings in Eplan. Will have him editing more as they become available.
Sheldon Basnett of Norma Group - We called Todd at 11:30am for an emergency issue with one of our AB Powerflex 40 drives. Kailas showed up at 1:30pm and had us up and running at 2:30pm and had already left the building. I’m very happy. Thank you for the quick and excellent support.
