Case Study: Waterflow Control Products for a Meditation Machine
Based in Nieuw-Vennep, Holland, Devoteq is a growing engineering company focusing on various fields, such as product development, FEM calculations, mechanical engineering, industrial automation, and robotics. Furthermore, the young engineers at Devoteq come from many different engineering backgrounds, so Devoteq feels at home in any market. We spoke with an engineer at Devoteq to learn more about how they used various Tameson products to complete a compelling and unique engineering project.

Flexible and Approachable
The variety of engineering backgrounds among the employees at Devoteq ensures that they can work on projects in a wide range of industries. The employees at Devoteq pride themselves on their approachability and flexibility. Their engineers routinely take on secondment assignments, temporarily joining a client organization until the project is finished. This arrangement greatly benefits organizations needing more personnel to start new projects. It ensures the client has direct access to the Devoteq engineers.
The Material Mind
Devoteq started working with Tameson to acquire products for a custom meditation machine project. Devoteq adopted this project from another group that had worked on it but could not fully meet the client's needs. Devoteq devised a new solution and, upon referral from a colleague who had worked with Tameson in the past, searched for and easily found products on the Tameson website. Specifically, Devoteq sought electric ball valves, drinking water-grade hoses, and various fittings. These products control the water flow in the meditation machine's system, ensuring the water level remains fixed at the height of the user's forehead when lying in the machine.
Ease, Quality, and Value
Devoteq explains why they enjoy working with Tameson. "We often had to buy from many different companies for a project, which meant delivery times and prices were often not entirely to our liking. With Tameson, we can get an entire segment of parts from a single supplier, which is nice." Additionally, they explained that the Tameson products offer "value for money" and "working with the Tameson website is very nice and intuitive. There is plenty of choice, which makes designing a machine based on your products easier."
