Meet Justin Leonard!

Justin joined Ramco after a career in marketing, advertising, printing, and outside sales, drawn to the company's leadership and the culture of a privately held business. Today, after 11 years with Ramco, he enjoys partnering with customers to solve automation challenges and helping manufacturers improve their operations.

For Justin, success is built on relationships. He believes the best opportunities come from earning the trust of engineers, maintenance teams, and plant managers over time, not just from a single sales call. He also appreciates that there's always something new to learn, whether it's the latest automation technology or a new product line.

His advice to anyone considering a career at Ramco? You don't need to know everything about automation on day one, you just need to be curious, enjoy solving problems, and be willing to learn.

We're grateful for Justin's dedication to our customers and the relationships he's built over the past 11 years!

Some of the most challenging automation applications come down to one thing—reliable detection.

The OPTEX D12R Fiber-Optic Sensor combines user-friendly operation with the performance needed for modern manufacturing. Its high-definition OLED display makes setup simple, while flexible external inputs, multiple teach modes, and long-distance sensing capabilities help improve accuracy and reduce downtime.

When you need dependable sensing in tight spaces or demanding applications, Ramco is here to help you find the right solution.

What challenges can we solve today?

Meet Lily Allen-Duenas! Before joining Ramco nearly two years ago, Lily built her marketing career in higher education, the nonprofit sector, and as a freelance consultant, working with organizations around the world. She was drawn to Ramco by the opportunity to bring her creativity, strategy, and problem-solving skills to an innovative company.

Lily enjoys that no two days look the same. From supporting sales and recruitment to events, digital strategy, and customer experience, she loves finding new ways to make an impact across every branch and department.

One thing people may not realize? Marketing isn't just promotion, it's problem solving. Much of Lily's work focuses on helping customers find solutions faster while creating tools and resources that make life easier for Ramco's sales and engineering teams.

Her advice to anyone considering Ramco: Every role here has an impact. You're not just doing a job, you have the opportunity to help move the company forward every single day.

We're grateful for Lily's creativity, enthusiasm, and commitment to helping tell Ramco's story!

What exactly is our Panel Shop building? 👀

We could tell you…but where’s the fun in that?

Our team has been putting their pneumatic skills to work on a pretty cool contraption for this year’s Ramco Open House. It involves a joystick, a little precision, and maybe some friendly competition... but you’ll have to come see it in action to find out what it actually does.

Consider this your sneak peek while it’s still a work in progress.

📅 September 9 | 11 AM–1 PM
📍 Ramco | West Des Moines

Come see what we’re all about and put this mystery machine to the test! RSVP on our website.

A great workplace is built on trust.

When we asked our IT Manager, Aaron Welch, what he'd tell someone considering a career at Ramco, his answer wasn't about technology, it was about leadership.

At Ramco, we believe giving people the freedom to solve problems, backed by a supportive team, is one of the best ways to grow.

It's this balance of trust, collaboration, and continuous learning that helps our employees build confidence and succeed.

Reliable detection shouldn't require complicated setup.

The OPTEX D12R Fiber-Optic Sensor is designed to simplify sensing without sacrificing performance. A bright OLED display, intuitive controls, and multiple teach modes make configuration fast, while cross-talk prevention and high-power LED technology help deliver stable detection in demanding manufacturing environments.

Whether you're inspecting small parts, automating assembly, or improving machine reliability, the D12R helps you spend less time programming and more time producing.

How can we make your day easier?

Meet Rick Hillmer!

Rick has been part of the Ramco team for 26 years, starting his career with an associate degree in Maintenance Electrician Technology and joining our panel shop before transitioning into outside sales.

What Rick enjoys most is the variety. From helping customers solve challenging automation applications to exploring new technologies like FANUC robotics, no two days are ever the same. Over the years, he's built deep technical knowledge while developing lasting customer relationships across the Midwest.

One thing Rick appreciates about Ramco is the freedom to shape his own success. As he puts it, "If I get bored, it's my own fault. I make my own fate."

And if you've heard the story about the crystal ball he gifted Becky... just know there's apparently a voodoo doll involved now, too. 😄 Keeping work fun has always been part of the job.

Thank you, Rick, for 26 years of expertise, humor, and dedication to our customers and team!
