Testimonials
“SMS is a trusted partner of Endress+Hauser Automation
We can count on reliable equipment, skilled and prompt service and application support. Kaltenbach equipment is very well designed and robust, and the couple of times we needed parts and/or service SMS, Inc. had the parts in stock and got someone to us same day.”
Leo B.
“Kaltenbach are not the cheapest machines out there, but in my experience with multiple machines that we run hard, they work great, and they are extremely durable. SMS, Inc. also has the people and the know-how to support them: in fact, after several years of 24/7 operation we routinely send our Kaltenbachs back to SMS for a technical refurb’ … and they go right back into production and do it all over again.”
Dan L.
“As a special machine tool builder we rely on our suppliers to provide quality machinery and components. Not only do SMS, Inc. meet that requirement with Kaltenbach products, their after-sales support is excellent – and their thorough knowledge of the sawing process assists us in providing the best product for our customers.”
Jim B.
“SMS has been great to work with! In order to feel comfortable about purchasing a refurbished saw I visited Columbus, IN and they were very accommodating. Having a knowledgeable tech to install the saw was very helpful. Since installation there have been several questions and each time I’ve had great customer service. I don’t always reach someone right away when I need to order parts but get taken care of within a day. The refurbished saw has worked great during the past 1.25 years!”
