Our experience and ability to perform the engineering required for these types of projects provides the steel mills a solution previously not available at a cost significantly below that of the traditional mill builders. Our low cost solutions have only the problem to solve, not equipment to sell so our solutions are the best and most cost effective way to improve the mills performance. The large mill builders are interested in selling equipment, so their solutions to problems usually involve equipment. Our unique situation results in the best solutions at the lowest price. Not solutions that will help keep a machine shop at full capacity.
