In the past few years, Sherman + Reilly has
begun a new journey, applying its years of
engineering and manufacturing experience
with advanced research, aimed at improving
operator safety on its equipment and setting
a new standard for equipment operation,
aptly named the Revolution Series. This new
generation of stringing equipment provides
advanced digital controls, joystick opera-
