Rock Island, IL (PRWEB) November 14, 2007 -- Inpro/Seal Company the inventor and world's largest producer of the industrial bearing isolator reports record sales for the third quarter of 2007. The company also reports that advance orders, shipments and projections remain far ahead of expectations and the company is on track to produce record results for calendar 2007.

The Company, The Product

The bearing isolator, is a non-contact, non-wearing, permanent bearing protection device invented by David C. Orlowski in 1977 (patent #4,022,479) to replace lip seals and other types of contact sealing methods that carry a 100% failure rate. A non-contacting type labyrinth seal, the bearing isolator never wears out and can be used over and over for many years.

Today, Inpro/Seal the company Orlowski founded, manufactures approximate 40,000 units per month, went on to receive some 40 other isolator related patents (some of which go out until 2018 and longer) and is the supplier of bearing isolators in the world. Realizing it falls into a "Best Maintenance Practice" category, most of the Fortune 500 companies in the process industries and over half of the world's industrial companies use Inpro/Seal products in critical maintenance roles.

Irrefutable Attributes Unique To Inpro/Seal

The company states that much of their success is related to characteristics unique and irrefutable to the Inpro/Seal brand, including: same day shipping (the fastest in the industry); zero energy consumption; ongoing training of sales people and end users; an active R & D program; ongoing investments in the future; industry leading warranty; only bearing isolator with a vapor blocking ring; documented 20 year life expectancy; widest product range; largest data bank of its kind; latest, the best non-contacting labyrinth sealing technology and more. A performance based, free bearing isolator program was recently announced.

Green Is The Color Of Money

When engaged with a rotating shaft, a contact seal, (lip seal or face seal) consumes, on average, 147 watts of power while operating. To show how significant this can be, if every bearing isolator that Inpro/Seal shipped year-to-date was used to replace an energy consuming lip seal, the energy savings alone would be would approximate 52,920,000 watts. Then, add to that the cost of downtime and you can see how much a bearing isolator change out can contribute to a plant's bottom line. Bearing isolators are non-contacting, never wear out and do not consume energy. Because they consume no energy and can actually reduce energy needs while cutting costs, that makes them one of the best ways a plant can initiate a "green" eco friendly program.

Industry Leading Website

According to Orlowski, "Based on the results of extensive research conducted on a market-by-market, application-by-application basis, we confirmed that plant management and maintenance people want to know about bearing isolators. From there, we adopted an educate and inform marketing approach across the board, and went on to revise our website". (www.inpro-seal.com)

Orlowski continued, "An educated consumer is our best customer. Our objective to have the user of our products fully aware of the benefits obtained through the implementation of our technology. Just revised, www.inpro-seal.com is extremely user friendly, easy to access and incorporates illustrations, charts, diagrams, installations, product photography, documentation, product literature, feature articles, FAQ's, guarantees and much more into a product rich website designed to educate, inform and simplify the bearing isolator selection process. This is not a static website that never changes. Because we maintain it internally, we include up-to-date, useful information as we want visitors to keep coming back on a regular basis".

People Business

Orlowski went on to say that, "The cumulative efforts of our employees, including management, staff and distributors, are key to providing the world class support, product development and enhancement that fuels our growth. A critical role in these efforts is ongoing training, as we must keep our people up-to-date who in turn keep the customer educated. We not only invest in our products, we also invest in our people".

Very Active Product Development Program

A new product last year, it has just been nominated for two prestigious awards; one is product of the year and the other is a reader's choice.

And More - the only product that protects rolling element bearings on paper machines; IEEE-841 motors use bearing isolators as part of their specification and set the standard for motor protection; every pump manufacturer offers standard product lines based around bearing protection for extended service life.

Same Day Shipping

To maintain their no extra cost, same day shipping option, the firm maintains a data bank with over 58,000 specially engineered designs. The largest of its kind, the data bank includes prints for every make, model, size and shape to retrofit any kind of rotating equipment made. In case they don't have a particular design, highly sophisticated computer-aided equipment, combined with their process know how allow them to develop a design within hours

Better Than Same Day Shipping

Take the recent breakdown of a shaft at one of the worlds largest paper mills, located in the southern U.S. When a large shaft fan (8" x 10') snapped, the production line was shut down, costing them tens of thousands of dollars an hour. While the fan was being repaired, Inpro/Seal received an urgent order at 7 a.m. By 10 a.m. the bearing isolators were on their way to the paper mill.

Another recent example is when a Detroit based auto manufacturer had a line go down when a non-protected machine tool spindle failed. They called Inpro/Seal first thing in the morning, faxed a print of the spindle and dispatched their corporate jet. While in the air, Inpro designed and manufactured exact fit bearing isolators and had them at the airport by the time the jet landed. Production resumed hours later.
