Optical Sorter Support<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n

Our optical sorter technicians have a variety of tools at their disposal to perform remote troubleshooting steps.

Conveyor Support<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n

From simple schematic look-ups, to complex product application solutions, you can be sure that our industry experts, using the latest diagnostics tools, will resolve your particular situation.<\/p>\r\n

What You Can Expect When You Call<\/h3>\r\n

When you call our help desk, expect to be asked a few questions including your name, place of business, contact information, model and serial number of your equipment, and a description of your problem. A picture is worth a thousand words – this is especially true in the optical sorting and material handling business! In many cases, our technicians will ask for a photo or video, so that we can make an accurate determination of the root cause of your issue, and recommend the best corrective action.<\/p>\r\n

Additionally, each tech support call will lead to the creation of a help desk ticket. If you are disconnected, we will have all the information we need to contact you and continue working on your case. Each case receives a unique ticket number. This gives the customer, technician, supervisor, and manager immediate access to all information related to your particular issue. Everyone with access to that ticket will be able to see the latest information, pose a question, and inquire on the status of the ticket<\/p>\r\n

While your case will receive a ticket number, you will not. When you call in, you will not be treated like a number, but an individual with the personal attention you deserve.<\/p>\r\n
