Most phone calls that come into A-T Controls are routed to our very talented and technical Inside Sales team. We have continued to hire additional Inside Sales team members as our business keeps growing.

The Inside Sales team will pass the call to Engineering if the topic is one of the following:

• New product research and development.
• Existing product improvement.
• Engineering mounting kits.
• Customized engineered solutions.
• Drawings of automated and manual packages.
• Application recommendations.
• Troubleshooting of demanding applications.
• Finite Element and Flow Analysis.

We have engineers in both Cincinnati and Houston that have Electrical, Mechanical and Chemical engineering backgrounds. In total, the team has over 150 years of engineering experience in the valve industry. The team reports to Ron Ruehlmann, VP of Engineering and Quality.

You may have noticed, there are some new, friendly voices to receive your phone calls at A-T Controls. We'd like to put faces to the voices for you. Jacky Jaffre is our new receptionist at our Cincinnati location and Liz Flaxman is our new recptionist at Houston. At A-T, we believe it is important to have a live person answer your phone calls every time. 

The receptionist position has proven to be a spring board for other career options within A-T. Most recently, Sarah Pellington has been promoted to the Inside Sales team where she is focusing on order entry and customer service. Congrats Sarah!

Something different from Russ Bailey of F.S. Welsford Co., his 1987 Suzuki GSXR 1100 sport bike.

He's owned it for decades and now it is registered as an antique. It has Vance and Hines intake and exhaust system with ignition advancer and jet kit. Kevlar clutches keep the power to the wheel and cindered metal brake pads help haul it down fast from triple digit speeds. Stock configuration will have it do 10.5 second quarter mile times at 130 mph with a top speed of 160 mph, but his is modified to go even faster!
