Eliott Jorgensen

Donaldson, Senior Engineer

"We called the Bison® sales office, and they immediately connected us to their applications engineering team, which led to a remarkable collaboration. We saw this challenge as the ultimate stress test for a blower, and we worked together with Bison engineers, upgrading the blower and incorporating some state-of-the-art innovations, to engineer a solution that reliably meets our needs."

OBAR SYSTEMS. Inc., Wholesale Manager

"The relationship between OBAR and Bison® has been excellent. There is a lot of benefit to working with a company like Bison on the technical side. Bison engineers can turn less technical information from the field into something helpful and actionable."

“When I looked closely at the blower, I had a moment of inspiration! This really could work, so I purchased it. It exceeded our design expectations, and ATS developed the first test kit around that one Windjammer® blower. It’s been so reliable that we’ve never considered using another product.”
