How to select a Custom Manufacturing Equipment Supplier

September 25, 2019

One of the first questions our clients or prospects ask us is “How do I decide where to design and build my custom manufacturing equipment?” We understand the importance of this question and have extensive experience working with our prospects to identify the best solution for their needs.

Owens Design VP of Engineering, Paul Shufflebotham asked the same question in his previous roles leading product development at equipment OEMs and designing factories for high tech manufacturing companies.  Paul developed a humorous flowchart to help guide prospects to a solution that matches their needs. Over the next few weeks, we plan to publish a series of educational, in-depth blogs that will introduce you to what you need to consider when purchasing manufacturing equipment.

Feel free to contact us and learn more about working with systems integrators shown in the illustration above!
