"In retrospect, looking back at the last four decades, I feel both humbled and gratified at how far we have come," stated president and founder of Elion Engineering, Eitan Eilon, about the special anniversary. "I feel that our greatest achievement is that our customers trust our products, and best of all that we are contributing to keeping people safe. Our products span the globe and we have created a legacy of uncompromising safety and quality."
Eilon Engineering has grown to become a world leader in the development and manufacture of load monitoring systems. Its popular product line includes Ron Crane Scales, dynamometers and load cells for force and load measurement, as well as Ron StageMaster load monitoring and overload prevention systems based on latest generation wireless technologies.
The company's list of repeat clients includes prestigious institutions like NASA and the US Air Force along with corporate giants Lockheed Martin, Boeing, GE, Siemens and Vestas, amongst others. Some of the world's best known brands in entertainment like Cirque du Soleil, the MTV Video Music Awards and Blue Man Group, along with a host of other renowned artists and productions, turn to products from Eilon Engineering for load safety. The company also counts numerous convention centres, theatres and arenas throughout the USA, Europe and the Far East among its list of clients.
Although Eilon Engineering can be proud of its achievements, Eitan Eilon makes it clear that the company does not rest on its laurels. "We continually look to the future," he said. "We embrace new technologies and constantly fine-tune and enhance our existing aerospace-quality products while our brilliant R&D team is tirelessly at work innovating new ones."
An excellent example is Elion's recent launch of Bluetooth hand-held PRRs (Portable Radio Receivers), for which an app is simply downloaded to a smartphone or tablet. The systems enable long range monitoring, have an extremely short response time, and monitor up to 200 load cells per second. Unique battery life provides up to 5,000 hours of continuous monitoring and transmission range can reach several kilometers.
Eitan concludes by acknowledging the Eilon team and its company partners around the world. "I especially wish to thank every member of our Eilon Engineering family for their non-stop dedication, and to our international network of distributors for having helped us reach the point where we are today."
It may be Eilon Engineering's birthday but it's Eilon customers that will be receiving the gifts. In celebration of its 40th Anniversary, the company has prepared a generous programme of luxury incentives. These will initially be offered at upcoming trade shows, including PLASA 2016 in London 18-20 September (Stand E12), and 21-23 October at LDI in Las Vegas (Stand 714), and will continue throughout the anniversary year.
