Supporting Our Customers Is A Key Priority.
Major Announcement August 1, 2014!
IMTS is rapidly approaching and according to the IMTS.com website, there is less than 70 days until the big show. Royal Master has a date of August 22nd to load up our truck and get all of our seven machines and support equipment out to the show. We still have a lot to do, but it is all coming together quickly.
We have begun assembling our booth again inside our building, to make sure that everything is ready to go once we get to the show, we will then move on to creating our automation station. More details of this to come also on August 1st.
As part of this effort we are proud to be making a major announcement on August 1. The initial feedback from others of what we have to share with you is impressive, and with their help, they have put some good ideas and additions into this project.
Stop back to royalmaster.com and booth6646.com on August 1 for all the details on this project and everything that we will be doing at IMTS 2014
Some Things Need No Introduction,
This little video came from a friend of mine shooting bowling balls up in the air. Its in Kansas, and make sure that you have the sound turned up. The following is he told me about the event:
Standard bowling ball. 8 5/8″ diameter. Not sure what caliber that is….
Landed 1/4 mile away and went more than 1/4 mile up. Luckily no crop duster planes last night.
At the end you can hear someone say “oh no, not the cars”. It was a little windy and might have drifted a bit.
IMTS 2014 is Coming and Royal Master to Have a Major Announcement
It has been a while since my last blog posting and we have been busy, we have had a number of innovative projects for customers go through our engineering department as well some really cool projects in the pipeline. One of these projects is featured on our Web site is a robotic loading system which loaded, unloaded, cleaned, gauged and palletized a fluid injector nozzle.
IMTS 2014 is approaching and we have been working diligently on a lot of projects for the show, but a couple in particular will be major, and redefine the centerless grinding landscape. We will be making the announcement August 1, 2014 of what this project is and what it means for the world of centerless grinding. Stay tuned
Many of you may remember Brianne, our marketing intern for a few years. She now goes to Rutgers University and is applying for student teaching positions for the fall semester. It was rewarding watching her grow, and learn, now she is almost done with her college education. We have taken on a new Intern, the son of Bob Hoffman, our southeast sales engineer. As I did with Brianne, she wrote a blog entry when she started, and also at the end of her experience with us. Steven has done the same.
Meet Steven Hoffman:
My experience at Penn State these past two years has prepared me for the work I am doing at Royal Master in many ways. Penn State professors love to emphasize that they are not just providing us with business skills and knowledge, but they are building future business leaders. Now that I have the opportunity to use some of these skill sets, I am really starting to see what the professors mean by that. As a marketing student going into my junior year I have yet to take many of the in-depth business courses Penn State offers. However the introductory classes I have taken have really prepared me for the work I am facing.
For example my Marketing 301 class gave me a lot of valuable information on real world marketing. Much of the course material was similar to what I learned in an Advanced Marketing class in high school. The biggest difference for me was that in Marketing 301 my professor would lecture on real world situations and simultaneously incorporate the information the textbook provided. This was really helpful and showed ...
Introducing a New www.royalmaster.com
When I went to Rochester Institute of Technology back in 1989, I brought my personal computer a advanced 289 powerhouse purchased from CompuAdd at a local highway store. There was no Gateway, Dell or others. Apple had a simple computer that could also do the basics as did my CompuAdd machine. I could type out term papers and essays right in my room, no need to brave the Rochester NY winters going to the computer lab. I quickly become friends in college with a Tor Gunderson, a native of Fairport N.Y. and as a graphic design major he was extremely creative and would often act as a sounding board for projects that were in my curriculum. He would spend hours drawing for classes, freehand as computers were not introduced to their classes, computers were not advanced enough to complete their projects. Computers entered their curriculum late into our collegiate career. At RIT we had an “email” system called the VAX system. It was a simplistic e-mail server that really was a pain to use would crash often and would be problematic in so many ways.
During our college coursework, he did a couple of projects for me and Royal Master that we used, a presentation folder, and a few brochures. Upon competition of college we continued to work together on various projects. He married another Graphic design major, Dina, and a few years later, Creative Thunder Designs was born.( www.creativethunderdesign.com )
Around 12 years ago Royal Master’s first website was born, and six years ago I approached him about booth6646.com and our satellite site was born as a virtual tradeshow booth for IMTS. Last year we embarked on our new site at royalmaster.com. We used facetime, dropbox, skype, gotomeeting.com and other online tools to accomplish this new site on weekends and evenings. We often commented about how much easier everything was from our first website where we would Fedex 8×10 glossy photos to Georgia for his to scan, and place into the site. Our daughters would talk on-line as Tor and I would work and they became fast friends even having never met in person.
Technology is amazing and it moves fast. In 20 years time, we went from a state of the art 286 computer, to virtual meetings , digital photography, internet, and on-line tools
