One system will be employed to assemble cabs for large off-road vehicles, and the other system is for assembly of a line of new fuel-efficient engines for automobiles and light trucks. Terms of the contracts were not disclosed.

The system design will incorporate the Company's unique and popular ergonomically designed carriers that lift, lower, and rotate fixtured vehicle frames during the assembly process, and will reduce worker fatigue and increase manufacturing productivity. The systems will be installed in new factories currently under construction and will significantly boost manufacturing capacity for both customers.

Len Yurkovic, Acting CEO of Paragon Technologies, said, "Our expertise in designing ergonomically friendly assembly systems is widely recognized in the vehicle manufacturing marketplace." Yurkovic also said, "As manufacturers worldwide search for systems that will reduce worker fatigue while increasing productivity, our conveyor technologies are positioned to become integral to their ability to achieve these requirements."
