Chris D,
Good point what about Yaskawa. I wasn't so sure how big Yaskawa is any more. Can you enlighten me?

Yaskawa is located in Waukegan IL and they have a very nice, big facility. I drive by it pretty often as I have an industrial client right next door. I no longer know any of the engineers there but used to know several - all good people. You may want to look into them pretty closely.
Also, to add another builder to the Yasnac (yaskawa) users is Mori, I know they used their controls a few years back but have since lost track of who is using what these days.
