Practical Systems, Inc. (PSI) and FlexLink’s Health Care Business Unit, headed by Ken Lento, have signed an agreement to work together in an effort to bring better efficiency to optical labs with the use of conveyor systems. PSI’s sales force will act as the sales arm for FlexLink by identifying labs that are interested in conveyor systems to improve their productivity. FlexLink will provide follow up and free system layouts to all interested labs. Optical lab customer’s will continue to purchase systems direct from FlexLink and will be handled by the FlexLink Optical Team for project design and implementation.

"PSI is all about practical systems like conveyors. We are always looking for ways we can help our customers improve their processes. We don’t just look at what consumables they are using but at their whole lab’s process. Working with FlexLink will just add one more way we can help our customers be more profitable." says Al Bednar, Director of Technical Sales and Service for PSI. 

"Partnering with PSI will only enhance our already strong presence in the optical lens manufacturing industry. We look forward to the growth that this new team approach will bring to both companies.", adds Lento.
