ATS Logo

Mike Wakumoto

Automated Testing Solutions, Inc. (ATS), Co-owner

“When I looked closely at the blower, I had a moment of inspiration! This really could work, so I purchased it. It exceeded our design expectations, and ATS developed the first test kit around that one Windjammer® blower. It’s been so reliable that we’ve never considered using another product.”



Obar Logo

Matt Troeller

OBAR SYSTEMS. Inc., Wholesale Manager

"The relationship between OBAR and Bison® has been excellent. There is a lot of benefit to working with a company like Bison on the technical side. Bison engineers can turn less technical information from the field into something helpful and actionable."




Donaldson Logo

Eliott Jorgensen

Donaldson, Senior Engineer

"We called the Bison® sales office, and they immediately connected us to their applications engineering team, which led to a remarkable collaboration.
