"Our job is to solve problems for our OEM clients and provide solutions with the best performance/value mix", explains Andy Reid, President of PacMation, in describing his company's decision to become a B and R Partner for the West Coast.
"Our engineers feel that B and R provides a uniquely integrated, scalable control platform".
"This platform is ideal for equipment requiring not only logic, but also HMI, MMI, data exchange, motion or comprehensive diagnostics".
"In addition, B and R represents a level of both software and hardware integration that to date, has not been available in the US market".
"This will allow us to provide a compelling alternative for OEMs who are working to differentiate their products, or have simply recognised the limitations of other major automation manufacturers".
Since the launch of the Automation Partner Programme in 2002 B and R has successfully established its US distribution network in the North American market.
Besides the new territories Washington State and Idaho on the West Coast B and R also provides local sales and engineering support through direct sales offices and distribution partners in Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, New York, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, Florida and Georgia.
These regional locations as well as our company headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia, provide first rate sales, technical support, training and application engineering for customers throughout the USA, underlining B and R's dedication to expansion and customer focus.
The B and R US team is striving to expand the Automation Partner Programme even further in 2005 with the goal to provide a more efficient and personal service to its customers locally.
