Over the last year, The SEYI-America Service Department has gone through a major face lift. It's nearly tripled its in-house service capabilities. Joining the team at the SEYI America Service Center and Showroom, located in Tullahoma, Tennessee are Stephen Deaton, Kevin Appel, John Oosting, Renee Abelardo de Hoyos, and Robert Hatfield.
"Qualified, seasoned service technicians are hard to come by," says David Hattabaugh, SEYI-America Service Manager. "We've been fortunate. Two of our new guys are transplants from up North; Illinois and Michigan. Both of them had previous experience with press repair companies. Renee, who is actually now part of the SEYI Mexico office, has had years of machine repair and electrical experience. And we rounded it out by grabbing young talent from a local technical school."
While the new staff has years of mechanical experience, much of the hiring criteria focused on electrical knowledge. "With today's servo technology and advanced automation, troubleshooting and diagnosing electrical issues are a priority. Our new guys came in with the knowledge and experience, and are familiar with PLC programming, logic, and electrical."
