For those of you that missed it here is the device. If the hoseman worked for the pump company and had this joy-stick, and not the tip hose in his hand; the pour would be safer. Less Man-power
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ PLEASE NOTE LAST SENTENCE and don't laugh when I say I remember when elevators had operators. |

I think that NOT being here right now might be a good thing. If I had a penny for every dollar spent by a pump manufacturer trying to sell pumps in the USA .... I would buy an island and retire. They look like they had a lot of good ideas and not enough $ to stick with it here. Sort of like the Elba people. It was easier to operate in Europe than here..... so they went back home. ;~) |

I see a day when the pump takes its direction from sensors in or around the area to be poured, not an operator as we know it. Progress? i guess ;~) |

I do not know of many owners running around looking for things to spend money on these days. If, by purchasing this device, an owner could increase profits..... You would need to make the case that it would, or could, save labor cost to generate much interest. Or, that a machine that had the trick tip hose would be worth more money per hour; you know, value added. In a different/better economic conditions I think it would sell. |
