PRAB engineering knowledge results from our extensive experience in the industry and thousands of scrap-handling equipment installations for the world’s leading OEMs and suppliers- each designed for the customer’s specific application and requirements. We are committed to delivering high-quality engineering, problem-solving, testing, servicing, and process improvements in metal scrap management and industrial wastewater recycling across various industries, including automotive, aerospace, electronics, defense, energy, and more.
PRAB engineers and manufacturing staff do not just pull a previous idea off the shelf. The decision process begins by understanding each business’s methods, goals, and requirements, as well as its specific needs. Our engineers will then work to design and build the best solution for you to manage your metalworking waste in the most beneficial way—to ensure every hour of our customers’ production is optimized, allowing them to work more efficiently than ever, with no unplanned downtime and minimal operating costs.
We drive continuous improvement through the PRAB Production System, a blend of lean manufacturing and Six Sigma principles, with a laser focus on our customers’ needs.
We are culturally centered on the belief that our customers are our long-term business partners; achieving their business goals is why we must deliver on ours. Typically, customers who invest in PRAB equipment experience a short return on investment and realize the benefits of a 20+ year equipment lifespan.
PRAB is with you from concept to installation and then long after for ongoing support or parts. We handle every aspect of customer care with zero outsourcing and a 100% operational guarantee, known as the PRAB Performantee®. PRAB stands behind each piece of equipment. We put our equipment experts to work for you around the clock with our 24/7 direct access line, so you can stay running efficiently and give your business the competitive advantage it deserves.
