How Can You Get Competitive Prices and Fast Lead Times on Durable Processing Equipment?

Written by Joe Sayer | Jul 26, 2024 1:31:08 PM

To stay competitive in the material processing industry, you need to work with a partner who can offer three things: a good price on equipment, long lasting performance, and fast lead times.

Some manufacturers will insist they can supply all three, but will fall short in at least one category. One may promise deep discounts, but then take months to deliver and install your equipment. Or you might miss out on potential profits while you work with the manufacturer to troubleshoot the install or source a mission-critical part that’s recently been backordered.

“Many material processing OEMs say they provide competitive pricing and fast lead times on premium equipment, but few possess the manufacturing expertise, control over the supply chain and coordination to actually deliver on all three,” said Seth Vance, CEO of Advanced Material Processing, Marion’s parent company. “Unlike other players in the market, Marion is well positioned to provide the same durable equipment and industry-best lead times our customers expect, at a better price.”
