As a new employee of ProtoCAM, I'd like to take a minute and introduce myself. My name is Tracey Collins and I have been working at ProtoCAM since November of last year. Some of you may already have spoken to me or received quotes from me.


Working at ProtoCAM has been challenging and fascinating at the same time. The environment is very diverse and fast paced. I love to see how we take someone’s idea and convert it into something you can hold in your hand! One of my favorite things about working here is how well we work together as a team. From start to finish, we all work closely to make your dream a reality. We start the process with a request for quote. Our engineers carefully process your request and then give them to either Faye or myself to format into a formal quote. When we receive your order, either Faye or I will follow through with creating the work order to your specifications and make sure everything is set for production. From engineering to finishing, we all work very closely together to make sure that the process goes smoothly and without interruption.

Even though the pace is hectic, we always find the time to smile and keep the atmosphere fun. The owners help with that too. For instance, the first day of spring Ray made a run to the local Italian Ice shop and we all enjoyed our first Gelati of the season. I’m really looking forward to this summer’s company picnic which will be held at a Reading Phillies baseball game. It will be nice to meet all the family members that I hear so much about.

Whether it’s watching your parts get built or meticulously hand finished, it gives me a wonderful sense of pride to be an integral part of supplying people with such high quality prototypes. I look forward to seeing your idea become a reality!
