SOLIGEN STRENGTHENS ITS MANAGEMENT TEAM
-- Appoints a National Sales Manager and a General Manager for its Foundry --
Northridge, CA, August 30, 1996 -- Soligen Technologies, Inc. (AMEX:SGT.EC), today announced the appointment of Mr. Jeremy R. Berns as National Sales Manager and Mr. Charles (Chuck) McMillen as General manager of Altop, Inc., the Company's aluminum foundry and machine shop. "Adding Mr. McMillen and Mr. Berns to our team adds substantial industry experience and management depth which is needed while facing the growth of Soligen's Parts Now service," said Yehoram Uziel, President and CEO.
Mr. McMillen brings a proven expertise in increasing the efficiencies of manufacturing operations. He has successfully raised profits by streamlining operations and improving quality. Mr. Berns has developed and successfully managed nationwide sales representatives as well as direct sales teams.
As National Sales Manager Mr. Berns brings 15 years of experience in selling and managing industrial products including prototypes and short production runs of computer generated products. Mr. Berns managed a customer account base consisting of major auto companies and as the Western Regional Manager for an industrial manufacturer he doubled the area sales volume.
Mr. McMillen brings over 30 years of experience in managing operations of metal working, molding, machining and assembly. He started his career as manufacturing specialist and production supervisor for Buick Motor Division and for 16 years he was a plant manager of a molding and CNC machining company operating successfully in a very competitive industrial environment.
Soligen's DSPC® technology is a proprietary fabrication process for metal parts that produces ceramic molds for metal casting directly from a CAD file. By this method, Soligen is able to produce a first article metal part that bypasses the traditional need for tooling. Additionally, Soligen's Parts Now® produces production tooling for larger runs of metal castings from the same CAD file as the approved part. Soligen has combined its DSPC technology with conventional casting methods and Computerized Numerical Control (CNC) machine practices. By combining these three production elements, the Company has created the first "one-stop-shop" for functional metal parts that are made directly from a CAD file and that are ready for assembly. This service, known as Soligen's Parts Now program, has become a single source for out-sourcing of metal parts.
