Sorry if this post is annoying to anyone, but I always do a short blog post about my sponsors and advertisers on the Lean Blog (to make sure that they get in front of you who read only via RSS, a free service).
American LED-gible has been a sponsor for a year already and they have re-upped their ad. They are an Ohio-based manufacturer that offers a wide variety of alpha-numeric, numeric, incandescent and L.E.D. displays for alarm annunciation, maintenance, information dissemination, safety programs, fault messages, statistical analysis and more. These displays help minimize bottlenecking and downtime, as well as, increase output and efficiency by the instantaneous communication of needed information to plant personnel.
They do their manufacturing and assembly in Ohio, which is important to them (and important to me, as I was born in the state and have a lot of family there). They are a family-owned business, which I think is important too.
I met their president, Charles Morrison, at the recent Productivity Inc conferences where they were an exhibitor. Their displays would be very useful for andon applications in a Lean environment. I hope you'll check them out.
