HGR’s enhanced website goes live
Posted April 27, 2016 , opgedateer op April 26, 2016 by Gina Tabasso
We are pleased to announce that after several months of planning and development, we launched our enhanced website this weekend.
This redesign comes on the heels of our last update one year ago. We received feedback via a customer survey and decided to make additional enhancements to the user experience.
Here are some of the new features that you will see:
A more accurate search function
Less white space and more products per page
The ability to click a product and expand it through quicklook without leaving the page
Color-coded items (new arrival, markdown, last chance) for easy identification
The ability to toggle between list view and a grid or tile view
Enhanced print templating for ease of printing items of interest
Enhanced sales inquiry form
Blog incorporated into the website
Display of “Trust” logos that show our affiliations with important organizations
Favorites function that allows customers to quickly assemble a list of items, then add any or all of those items to their shopping cart
Enhanced product images: This is being phased-in, but our inventory clerks will begin loading images at higher resolution. It will take several months for lower-resolution images to work their way through inventory, but down the road all of the images should be about twice the size that they were on the prior version of the website.
A zoom image feature to take a closer look at photo details
As always, we welcome your feedback and hope these changes enhance your shopping experience.
HGR partners with auction house to move high-dollar items
Posted April 26, 2016 , opgedateer op April 25, 2016 by Gina Tabasso
On Apr. 20, HGR Industrial Surplus partnered with Cincinnati Industrial Auctioneers to host a public auction of all of the tools and equipment at the former Ohio Camshaft/OC Industries site in Twinsburg, Ohio, due to the plant’s closure. The parking lot was full at 9:30 a.m. with many pickup trucks full of dollies and pallets, and the auction of 642 lots began at 10 a.m. with 69 onsite and 96 online bidders from 22 states, Canada, Peru and Turkey. Everything was lined up nicely and tagged for display in the plant. Two machinists were available to demonstrate the equipment and provide information. The auction started with small tabletop items with the large equipment being sold around lunchtime.
Jeff Luggen, vice president and principal auctioneer at CIA, and his brother, Jerome, have been in the business for 35 years, and his father and mother started the company in 1961. Jeff’s sons Jeffrey and Joseph joined the company in the early 2000s, and Jerome’s son, Ryan, joined in 2013. That’s three generations of Luggen expertise! Speaking of experts, about six rigging companies from all over the country, including New Jersey, North Carolina and Ohio, were available to help customers haul their items off premises.
The top five items that sold were:
$100,000.00 – 42” x 192” Clausing Model CL45200 Flat Bed CNC Lathe (2006)
$48,000.00 – 60” Summit Model 60-VBM Vertical Boring Mill
$42,500.00 – 43” x 315” Hankook Model Proturn 100 Flat Bed CNC Lathe (1997)
$40,000.00 – 26” x 240” Norton OD Cylindrical Grinder
$30,000.00 – 32” x 144” Berco Type RTM-425A Crankshaft Grinder
The auction was advertised by brochure mailer, CIA and HGR email blasts, Bidspotter email blast, AuctionZip and signage to attract drive-by customers.
The partnership with HGR began when Rick Affrica, HGR’s chief purchasing officer and partner, began attending CIA auctions in 1998. He says, “I have attended their auctions, and it’s been a great fit. They’ve been very responsive and timely and treated our customers the way we want them to be treated by answering their questions, providing alternatives and finding ways to meet the customers’ goals. That’s why we have continued to work with them during the past few years. We partner with other auction houses, as well, to meet our customers’ needs.”
Opvoeding van die arbeidsmag vir die vervaardiging van loopbane
Posted April 25, 2016 , opgedateer op Maart 3, 2016 by Gina Tabasso
Volgens die Vereniging van Manufacturing Engineers ' Werknemers Imperatief: 'n produksie Onderwys Strategie, "Manufacturing is 'n belangrike komponent van die moderne samelewing, sodat mense na die goedere en produkte wat hulle nodig het om te eet, leef, te vermaak en hulself te beskerm bou." Maar, het onlangs, die bedryf het twee uitdagings - 'n ouer-out / uittredende arbeidsmag en wat beide dra by tot tot onvoltooide vervaardiging werksgeleenthede 600,000 in die Verenigde State van Amerika - die gebrek aan jonger talent om poste te vul.
Dit tekort aan beskikbare, gekwalifiseerde werkers om plaaslike vervaardigers mededingend te hou is te danke, in die deel, 'n tekort in die wetenskap, tegnologie, ingenieurswese en wiskunde (stam) vaardighede wat geleer word in skole. En, volgens Manpower, "Die aard van werk vervaardiging het dramaties verander oor die afgelope dekades as gevolg van nuwe tegnologie. Baie vervaardiging tegnologie is al swaar rekenaargebaseerde. Dit is kompleks tegnologie, en programmeerders en operateurs van hulle vereis aansienlike tegniese opleiding. "
Met hierdie loopbaangeleenthede, is dit belangrik vir studente en werkers in die stadium van die keuse van 'n loopbaan of opleiding om 'n loopbaan in die vervaardiging as gevolg om te oorweeg:
Die beskikbaarheid van werksgeleenthede
Die geleentheid om kreatiwiteit en innovasie van toepassing
Finansiële belonings (gemiddelde beginspan salarisse: $ 24 / uur met mede-en $ 57,000 / jaar met baccalaureus- volgens die Amerikaanse Buro van die Labor Statistics)
'N onder-verteenwoordiging van vroue en minderhede
Verspreiding deur beroepsgroep (Mei 2013), met vergunning van die Amerikaanse Buro van die Labor Statistics
Daar is 'n verskeidenheid van openinge in die produksie, onderhoud en herstel, vervoer / logistiek, produk ontwikkeling, ingenieurswese, verkope, bestuur en administrasie wat kritiese denke en probleemoplossingsvaardighede vereis, wat geleer kan word deur middel van praktiese tegniese programme, nywerheid certificaties, of twee- en vier-jaar graad programme.

Die gees van samewerking wat baie munisipaliteite soek tussen hul rade, skool borde en sakekamers het 'n meetbare mate van vervulling in Euclides bereik.

Miskien is dit ook wat so duidelik die bedrywighede van 'n uitrusting soos HGR Industrial Surplus regverdig.
Die ooreenkomste tussen die industriële surplus reuse en die stad is dit 'n beroep huis gaan as duidelik. Hulle grens wedersyds noodsaaklik.
Burgemeester Gail erken dat die stad in die gesig staar 'n 2016 waar planne die stad se stand te hou groei agter hom sy begroting gereedheid om dit te ondersteun; egter gevolg sy daardie verklaring met Kudos aan HGR en ander anker maatskappye vir die maak van tydige herbelegging pogings.

Euclides se klein sake-gemeenskap het ook uitgebrei in die afgelope jaar met 'n nuwe eetplekke, Kruideniers, en 'n brouery, onder andere. Die infrastruktuur van geboue wat sulke operasies te huisves staatmaak op betroubare industriële toerusting-elektriese kragopwekkers, oonde en ketels, lugversorging eenhede, kompressors, waterpompe, ens Kwaliteit kliëntediens vereis ook kasregisters, rekenaars, aanbod kaste, stofsuiers, water verkoelers of fonteine, en skottelgoed eenhede om 'n paar te noem. Weereens, HGR het die buigsaamheid en verskeidenheid van voorraad aan elke behoefte aan te spreek.
Dit stad wat drie takke kan opzweren in 'n opkomende visie van burgerlike wedergeboorte is uniek. Nie so uniek is die beperkings van finansiële en materiële toegang in die nastrewing van dit.

Mobile business solutions streamline processes

Think about the company you work for now. What do they do, and how do they do it? When you look up a file or transaction, is it on paper or in a file cabinet? When you get a new customer or client do they have to fill out a paper form? Do you or other employees have to fill out paper forms? What if there were no paper forms to fill out? What if there was an easier way?
You can use a preconfigured mobile application as a template and tailor it to meet your specific needs or start from scratch and design it. Some of the options include barcode reading, RFID tags, taking pictures, talk to text, capture signatures, and many more.
Going mobile is the direction a lot of companies are heading, and the ones that have done so have had great results. Instead of giving a customer a form to fill out they hand them a phone or tablet that will upload the data as soon as it’s submitted. This eliminates having to give the form to an employee who would have to enter the information into the computer, which in turn saves a lot of time. The same works for employees who currently use a clipboard with paper forms attached. Going mobile saves a lot of time and money while also allowing employees to be much more productive.
Step 1 is simply looking at and examining your current everyday business process. Maybe your current process works just fine the way it is, or maybe there is room for improvement. Some of the best practices for building a mobile strategy are:
Organize your IT mobility team for success
Identify which partners best align with your mobility strategy.
Implement an IT self-service model.
Leverage both cloud-based and on-premises solutions.
For additional information or questions visit our website at www.edgeclifftech.com or give us a call at 1-844-769-1769. We specialize in mobile business solutions to help companies with their everyday business process and make that process as simple, efficient, and productive as possible using mobile technology.

Cleveland metal finishing shop starts with a handshake between families
(Courtesy of Guest Blogger Dennis Kappos, VP-Sales, Erieview Metal Treating, www.erieviewmetal.com)
President and General Manager Alex Kappos, VP-Sales Dennis Kappos and Comptroller George Kappos are brothers and second-generation owners of Erieview Metal Treating, 4465 Johnston Parkway, Cleveland, Ohio. The company was founded by their father, George Kappos, Sr. and their uncle, John Kappos. So, the company began with two brothers and is now owned and operated by three brothers.
The founders grew up in Wheeling, West Virginia, and both travelled to Cleveland for college. They attended John Carroll University and Fenn College (known today as Cleveland State University). Both brothers played basketball, sometimes against each other on their respective teams. They both met their future wives while living in Cleveland and stayed here after they received their college diplomas to start their careers.
The company was founded in 1961 with the help of the Mandel brothers, the owners of Premier Industrial Corp., now part of Premier Farnell. The Mandel brothers funded the start-up of Erieview with a 10 -year interest free loan. There was no contract, just two families looking each other in the eye while they shook hands — something that would never happen today.
Erieview started out as a small metal finishing shop doing two finishes, zinc and cad plating, with six employees. Premier was their largest customer for many years. Today, the company has expanded to 85 employees, more than 25 finishes and hundreds of customers.
For a company that specializes in bulk finishing for a wide range of industries and is witness to several downturns, including the most recent hard-hitting recession, Erieview has managed to celebrate 55 years in Cleveland. It has not always been smooth sailing and the city has changed a lot during the years, from a manufacturing perspective. Dennis recalls driving the company truck in the late 60s and into the 70s and being in awe of all the manufacturing in Cleveland. He says, “I remember driving through The Flats and seeing barbed wire as far as the eye could see. All the nails in the entire world were made here at that time. People don’t know this, but Cleveland was the fastener capital of the world in those days.” Alex says, “The great majority of fastener manufacturing from our hometown is now in Taiwan and China.”
The company has had to make changes to survive in that changing world. What made it work took effort, but it really is a pretty simple philosophy: We have the best people in the industry working here that are dedicated to providing the best service to the customer and a company philosophy of sticking to what we do best. We also use that same philosophy when working with our suppliers. HGR Industrial Surplus is a great example of that. You will find our head of maintenance and our plant manager visiting HGR many times throughout the month. We are a service company, and they are a great resource to help us maintain our plant operations.
