Case Studies — Add-a-Motor
Our Customer:
Add-a-Motor Inc. markets remote control motors that retrofit to existing drapery and vertical blinds. These patented motors are carried by distributors in the USA, Australia, Belgium, Russia, and the UK.
Their Challenge:
In 1994, Add-a-Motor had a great idea to add convenience and security to every home at affordable prices. For more than a year they searched for a turnkey manufacturing solution. In 1996, Crescent Industries was selected to:
• design and build custom molds for Add-a-Motor's patented product line
• provide high-quality molding of plastic parts
• assemble motor housing and control from 12 molded parts and 13 purchased components
• warehouse customer inventory and provide logistical support to Add-a-Motor's sales office
Our Innovative Solution:
Crescent Industries consolidated into one package what could have been a multi-company, multi-location process. Together with Crescent's team of mold designers/builders, injection molders, and complex assembly specialists, Add-a-Motor has refined its motor design, molding and assembly process to peak efficiency.
The Result:
Crescent Industries' "one stop" manufacturing and assembly solution allows Add-a-Motor to focus on what it does best - provide service and fulfillment to its worldwide network of distributors.
"Crescent's quality workmanship and responsiveness to our needs make them our most valued supplier. Choosing Crescent Industries was one of my best decisions."
