We want to help our customers get up and running as quickly as possible, even if they experience a machine failure after normal business hours,” says Chris Tummillo, parts manager. “We’re extending our parts shipping hours for emergency situations to accommodate manufacturers who run their operation 24/7. We’ll even ship on weekends and holidays.”
