Product Positioning in the
market
Our motorized skein-winders and swifts are commercial grade
equipment items. They are not consumer grade products (although many
consumers will purchase them). This is the type of
equipment that professionals, shop owners, and fiber related businesses
need and demand.
The equipment is expensive, yes, but it is far less
expensive than if a large company (with high overhead) was designing and manufacturing it.
This equipment could easily sell for 1-1/2 times of what we list it for
given the amount of engineering and the quality of materials and
construction that go into every item.
We design a complete line
of integrated products that share certain features and integration.
There is no other company in the industry that has such a complete line
of winders and measurement systems. So, when you look at
the price for this equipment, please take all of this into
consideration. This equipment is rock solid and will last a long time.
But most importantly, it will get the job done for you in World Class
style.
It also looks great! Designed and manufactured in the USA with USA based
support via 1-800 line and email.
Bob's Commentary
"Well, I was
really impressed with our Swift and Skein-winder products when we
developed them in 2010. But I must say, that our motorized option for
these units are even more impressive. We launched these motor drive
systems in 2011. They incorporated the integration of our new Electronic
Rotation Counter and our existing Electronic Yarn Meter. But more
importantly, they could be added onto existing swifts and skein-winders
already in the field. Just like our motorized Power Base could be easily
added to ball winders in the field, now this new motor drive system
could motorize swifts and skein-winders."
"Plus these units are
slick. One bolt attaches the unit to the swift. This same bolt allows
the user to add or subtract tension to the belt. Attractive and
functional, the motor drive option is also highly ergonomic. Another
fantastic feature is that the new ERC can shut down the motor drive when
a specific qty of yards, meters, or even rotations has been measured.
Even if our competitors could match the mechanical excellence of our
swift mechanism, they cannot match our electronic measurement systems.
All together, these systems are the most advanced available in the fiber
arts industry."
"If you require state-of-the-art motorized and
metered winding systems, we have what you need under one roof. Complete
integration of hardware and USA support."
