The ASI Blog

Hi everyone –

Today marks Alignment Supplies, Inc.’s 25th anniversary!  This is a major milestone for a company that had started with just one employee and has grown to become the US national distributor of Easy-Laser® precision alignment and measurement systems.  Founded by Greg Knitz in 1985, ASI has grown exponentially over the past several years, adding new Sales, Marketing, and IT executives, a new office with a full training facility, and the addition of a Repair and Calibration department.  We’re positioned for the next quarter-century as one of the premier resources for the precision alignment and measurement community.   It seems fitting that we enter the next quarter-century with a revolutionary new product, our new Easy-Laser E710.  The E710 promises to be the future of shaft alignment, with wireless operation, color graphics, and infinite battery life – all at an industry-best price!         

We asked Greg what his thoughts were upon reaching this milestone, and he told us:  “It’s been a great journey, and every indication says we’re only just getting warmed up.  We’re committed to being the best alignment and measurement resource for our friends and colleagues in the Reliability community – and we have the history to prove it.”

There you have it!  Thank you to all our friends, fans, and colleagues for a wonderful 25 years.  We’ll be sure to keep up the pace, providing you with the BEST alignment equipment, support, pricing, and service for all your alignment needs!

Hey everyone –

We hope you all had a fun and relaxing Fourth of July!  As we discussed in our D450 Giveaway, we are awarding not one, but TWO free D450s this year!  The first D450 will be awarded from all the submissions we received up through the end of June, 2010.  The second will be awarded from all the submissions we receive through the end of December, 2010.

We will be making an announcement soon about the winner - so keep your fingers crossed!  And, if you don’t win this time, there is no need to re-enter - everyone that had already submitted an entry for our June drawing is automatically re-entered into the drawing for December!  How’s that for easy?

Of course, individuals can only enter once, but there is NO LIMIT to the number of employees from your company that can enter.  So, if you want to increase your odds, get as many colleagues as you can to fill out our entry form.  It’s easy, takes only a minute, and is totally free!  So what are you waiting for?

Keep your eyes peeled for an announcement from us very soon!

All the best,

ASI

2009 ends with two feet of snow in Maryland - who would have thought!

Thanks to everyone that made WEFTEC and Solutions 2.0 great conferences. We enjoyed meeting everyone.

The D90 Giveaway was a huge success! Stay tuned to this blog throughout 2010 to see what we come up with next.

Hi everyone –

Happy Holidays from all of us at Alignment Supplies / Easy-Laser, and best wishes for 2010!  In the spirit of the season, please enjoy a little holiday music set to a synchronized light show…

Hello and welcome to the Alignment Supplies, Inc. Blog!  Of course, our new blog is a component of our new website, which we hope you are enjoying.  We have put in a lot of effort to bring you a website that’s easy to use, and yet extremely thorough and informative.  ASI is committed to being your Precision Alignment and Measurement resource of choice.  In order to be a great resource for you, we’re utilizing tools like our blog, our Newsboard, and our Resources pages to give you the latest information on new products, upcoming events, and even special offers that will only be available (and announced) through our blog!

We have big plans for our new website and for the ASI blog.  We want to help you with your alignment and measurement problems and questions - no matter how big or small they are!  We believe it’s important to be a voice in the alignment community, and we’re looking for your feedback so that everyone can share knowledge, experience, and common ground. 

So what’s on tap for the ASI blog?  Well, we’re going to be answering your questions in a feature called “Ask Greg!,” where our resident President and alignment aficionado Greg Knitz will be answering your questions about alignment.   There may even be some special prizes for people whose questions end up being featured in our Ask Greg segments!

We’ll also do various pieces on special tips and techniques that will help you get the most out of your alignment equipment.

And - we’ll be discussing our upcoming events, announcing exclusive special offers, and discussing everything in the world of alignment and measurement.  We won’t just be talking about Shaft Alignment either - we’ll cover Belt Alignments and Geometric Measurements, too. 

So get your shims cleaned up and your feeler gauges out.  We look forward to ushering in a new era of conversation among our peers and colleagues. 

Straight on til morning,

ASI
