OK – we know – ball screw lead times have been pretty long for some time, and with good reason (see previous blog).  But have faith – Steinmeyer has been working on it and our efforts are starting to bear fruit.  For quite some time we have been continually adding new machines and streamlining operations.  And just recently we broke ground for the latest facility addition which will add another 23,000 sq ft of manufacturing (about 18%).  Lead times have started to come down and we expect further reductions in the coming months.  So this is a good time to check with us on any new programs you may have, as well as placing new blanket orders!
