Heidenhain CNC

Travis asked me to ask everyone which customers have Heidenhain controls. We have been designated as reps for their probes, and integrating them into Heidenhain controls is very easy. Therefore, he wants to approach them first. The ones that come to my mind are ATK, Mafi Trench and Paragon Precision (in Santa Clarita). If you can think of any more, please add them here or let Travis know.

We are also going to be selling Blum LMT products (Probes, Tool Setters, Laser Tool Setters) and I'll have more to say about that later.

Progress continues to be made in the area of machine monitoring using the "Refresh Your Memory" system. NOV (Varco) has just given us a P.O. to upgrade their one machine pilot project to include Feedrate Override monitoring. Upon completion of this, they will probably move forward with several more machines. Sonic in Torrance and Ontario is expanding their system. We've been given all of RYM's Westec leads for this area and are considered to be their exclusive dealer for both monitoring and DNC in Southern California.

Sharon will be off until Monday.
