i got the impression he was more of a sales engineer than a senior engineer but he could be either

@@jasonbenjamin1464 He's in the Yaskawa Tour video! ukposts.info/have/v-deo/pX9ypY18eX2goqs.html

@@jasonbenjamin1464 I don’t think his knowledge of torches, heating, warpage, software coding, or metallurgy indicates he’s in sales, but maybe you’re right.

​@@JEBavido having worked with sales guys anyone selling a machine like this needs to know almost as much about it as the engineers themselves, hence the term sales engineer. plus they have to be the translators between the client and the team building the machines, it's a tough job to pull of right. if you think Jeremy had a lot of questions, pretend you're in charge of the buying process for one of these and have to sign the check :)

I worked with him as an co-op there over the summer. He is in fact a senior engineer he just looks young haha.

Yeah he was a huge part of making this video great!

Yes. Very articulate.

Also, he seems to be really good at iteration, learning and taking feedback.

Excellent

Doesn't seem to see much sun, though.

💯

Are you talking about this video? ukposts.info/have/v-deo/p2CXe5WjpYyZqas.html

This is really one of my favorites parts of the video! I loved the honesty, transparency and the feeling that everyone engineer must experience. Despite your best efforts to fully imagine something that doesn’t exist yet, you have missed some part of the process. It happens to every new engineer even if they never admit it LOL. And “should” become more rare with experience. Though it never goes away

Can you share more on what you do with Automation

What's the difference in MSRP between these a kukas

A smart company, interested in survival, looks at customer service as another vital point of customer feedback to drive continuous improvement. A spread sheet driven company, interested in quarterly returns, looks at it as an expense. .02 A satisfied customer shops around. Why not? There may by something better. A delighted customer posts impromptu reviews driving growth. "Survival is not compulsory" -W.E.D

@@amusady I mainly use robots to help me with batch operations making furniture parts. I started with an older otc/miller (early 90’s era!) robot around 2015 for arc welding simple stool bases. After that, I was hooked. Over the years, I started buying and selling surplus robots as a side gig which allowed me to keep what I liked best. Although I am by no means an expert, I've had my hands on almost all common brands like fanuc, otc, panasonic, nachi, kaku, ABB, etc. Don't get me wrong, all great machines but of all brands, i've always preferred yaskawa. The machines are great and the support is top notch even on older legacy equipment. The techs are friendly, helpful and enthusiastic (much like in this video). There is also a good amount of support online..things like technical manuals are readily available. That may not seem like a big deal until you try and get a manual for a nachi robot. They’ll tell you to contact your local sales rep and fork over several $100’s basic operation manuals.

I have come to learn that it's very much related to where you live, for me ABB has been the best to work with followed by Fanuc (thanks to the local guru), with ABB I have had direct contact with developers. And ABB has by far the best simulation software on the market compared to Fanuc, Kuka and Yaskawa in my opinion. I know that in the last years, Yaskawa has tried to push the local market a lot more.
