The existing equipment is well maintained and remains in good working condition. However, the engraving systems are largely original, with the serial control unit last updated around 2010. In addition, Dahlgren Engraving Systems, the original equipment manufacturer, is no longer in business, which may limit future serviceability and parts availability. - Opportunities for Growth
