3 people have recommended Dwight
"I worked with Dwight over a period of a couple years while developing a line of encoder products for my
company. Dwight called on me and provided excellent service to our company. He was very responsive in
delivering drawings of components, explaining the wiring schematics and assembly process, and assisting us
with custom parts and quotes. Dwight really made it a pleasure to do business and he invited me to join an
industry association that his company sponsored to help me meet his associates. Dwight is an excellent
salesman and applications engineer. I recommend him to any high technology company that is interested in
developing their business professionally."
Marcus Heilner, Director R & D, MicroMo Electronics, Inc., was with another company when working
with Dwight at HEIDENHAIN
"I have worked with Dwight on several new products at key accounts. Dwight is excellent with customers and
quickly understands the requirements and technical details. He works very well in specification negotiations
between the Customer and Engineering. I highly recommend Dwight for any motion control or related field."
Gary Rhodes, Engineering Manager, Renco Encoders, INC., worked with Dwight at Renco Encoders Inc
"Technically sound, great communicator, new business development Pro."
