2016 was an extremely eventful year for CBT, and we have seen continued growth of our website and Solutions Warehouse blog. We gathered feedback from customers, readers, and industry partners to provide customized information for all. We’ve shared our knowledge through posts about product applications, case studies, and safety regulations. We provided ebooks, whitepapers, educational videos, and promoted events and news pertinent to CBT. Here are our most popular posts of 2016:

To minimize downtime and keep production lines running, you need a reliable service partner that you can trust to provide quality repairs when you need them. CBT and partner Rockwell Automation offer high-quality repair services dedicated to fixing your industrial equipment problems with a seven-step remanufacturing process.

Last year I said that 2015 was a very busy year, and we had many wonderful accomplishments. Well, 2016 blew 2015 away! On March 31st we expanded CBT further North up the 1-75 corridor with our new location in Sidney, Ohio after our purchase of FDL Automation. The acquisition and our commitment to the best customer support have taken our workforce to 207 wonderful employees. Our sales teams now cover about 115 miles up I-75 spanning several additional cities, townships, and counties. In addition to the acquisition, we also completed the construction of our new headquarters building in Columbia Township. Our move from 737 West Sixth was accomplished on the weekend of July 23rd and 24th. It would not have been possible without the selfless efforts of the entire CBT team.
