I’m Adam Quoss, and as the Vice President of Sales at Mac-Tech, I’ve spent many years guiding clients to find the perfect balance between efficiency and precision in metal fabrication. My passion lies in ensuring that each project succeeds not just technically, but in a way that supports customers’ long-term growth and profitability. Schechtl’s machinery has been a reliable partner in this journey, consistently delivering the accuracy and innovation that make a tangible difference on the shop floor.
Over the years, I’ve learned that success in metalwork isn’t just about the equipment. It’s about building relationships rooted in trust, understanding each client’s unique challenges, and then tailoring solutions that fit like a glove. That’s why I’m eager to share my insights into Schechtl’s precision technology, demonstrating how it can transform your metal fabrication processes—and how I’m here to guide you every step of the way.
Consultative Role: Understanding Client Needs with Schechtl
When I sit down with a potential client, my first question typically revolves around what they hope to achieve with their metalworking processes. Some clients want to streamline production times, while others need ultra-precise bends and folds for complex projects. By asking the right questions, I gain a clear picture of how your business operates, what equipment you currently use, and the bottlenecks you might face.
Schechtl’s value really becomes apparent when you look at how versatile their technology is for a wide range of applications. But there’s no one-size-fits-all answer. Each time, I make sure we cover not just the immediate project requirements but also your long-term goals for automation and scalability. In doing so, I immerse myself in your operational challenges, mapping them out step by step to find the best path forward.
January or June, new client or returning customer—my approach remains consistent. I see myself as a partner rather than just a salesperson. By placing emphasis on collaboration and trust, I ensure that you’re investing in a Schechtl system that will truly serve as the linchpin of success for your metal fabrication needs.
Tailored Solutions: Matching Schechtl Technology to Demands
Once I grasp your requirements, I match them with the unique capabilities of Schechtl’s bending and folding machines. From entry-level models for smaller fabrication shops to fully automated systems for larger-scale operations, Schechtl offers solutions that excel on the shop floor. My job is to help you pinpoint the model that best suits your technical, financial, and scalability needs.
I pay close attention to the level of automation you require. For some clients, minimal automation within small teams works best; for others, maximizing throughput and reducing workforce strain is paramount. By helping you recognize exactly where you stand on this scale, I can guide you toward the right Schechtl machinery, ensuring that every bend and fold meets your rigorous standards.
The result is a highly personalized solution that accounts for workflow, future expansion, and budget. I see it as a puzzle that I piece together with your input. Whether it’s recommending advanced tooling for specialized projects or highlighting software upgrades that elevate precision, everything is geared toward delivering solutions that exceed your expectations.
Guiding Implementation: Ensuring Success and Satisfaction
I recognize that even the best machinery needs proper setup, training, and support to reach its full potential. That’s why I take a hands-on role in coordinating installation with our dedicated technical teams. We walk you through every step, from uncrating your Schechtl machine to fine-tuning operational settings so you can hit the ground running.
Equally important is training. I ensure that you and your staff understand not only how to operate the machine but why certain processes are structured a certain way. This fosters a sense of confidence and can drastically reduce downtime—and mistakes—down the road. It’s deeply rewarding to see teams master the equipment and realize the tangible benefits in productivity and product quality.
After the machine is up and running, I stay in touch to see if everything is progressing smoothly. Should any concerns arise, I’m just a phone call or an email away. My aim is to provide more than a transactional sale; it’s about ensuring you feel supported and heard at every stage of the journey.

Additionally, as the metal fabrication industry advances, I’m here to advise on new techniques or expansions of your production line. Think of me as your trusted consultant, always on the lookout for ways to strengthen your competitive edge.
It’s a privilege to be part of your success story. My belief is that with the right equipment, expertise, and relationship, sky’s the limit for what a metalworking operation can achieve. And it’s precisely that collaborative spirit that makes Schechtl machines—and our teamwork—so effective for the long haul.
