“We’ve had such outstanding success with Koike that we haven’t spoken to anyone else.” Jim Farley, Project Manager To be the preferred supplier of welding positioning equipment to Liebherr USA, you have to do a lot of things right. And Koike Aronson does. The Virginia facility of Liebherr, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of mining equipment, has been buying welding positioners from Koike for years. “Some of the original machines are still in operation,” reports Jim Farley, project manager. “And the service support is terrific. When it comes to responsiveness we can get directly to a person who can help.” The guys on the floor are sold on Koike, too. “I love the Head and Tailstock,” says Fabrication Lead Man Charles Moler. “Koike worked with us so it was designed to fit our needs and reduce set-up time for each rotation.” Koike Aronson, Inc./Ransome Arcade, NY USA 800-252-5232 www.koike.com Left to Right: Jim Farley Project Manager Charles Moler Fabrication Lead Man Jim Pfizenmayer Fabrication Supervisor Robert Egloff Fabrication Manager Koike Aronson Ransome Head and Tailstock positioning a Liebherr mining truck frame.
