Your company will be exhibiting at PACK Expo, what is it that makes this an important event for your company? 

The Packaging Machine industry is one of our key markets for our planetary gearheads.  It gives us a place to showcase a variety of our products all in one location, to a variety of folks looking for motion control solutions.  We enjoy meeting with both the attendees and exhibitors. This show provides a focused venue where we can reach many of our targets. And, it’s a great place to catch up with long-time customers and friends in the industry.
