What Paschal Associate does

Paschal Associates, LLC is a privately held technical sales and application-engineering firm founded in 1954 by Fred Paschal and headquartered in North Carolina. The firm represents multiple equipment OEMs — including Deister, Polydeck, Sandvik, McLanahan, and Technofast — and sells capital equipment, replacement parts, consumables, and custom-engineered solutions to aggregate mining, brick manufacturing, and metal finishing customers across the southeastern United States (Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Tennessee, and West Virginia).

The company's product portfolio is organized into seven service lines: Crushing (Sandvik crushers and proprietary manganese liner profiles, including custom redesigned parts for legacy crusher models); Screening (Deister screens with wire, steel plate, urethane, and rubber media); Sand Processing (plant design and gradation optimization); Fines Recovery (water clarification and material recovery systems); Conveying (transition point sealing and stockpile management); Custom Solutions (specialty engineered assemblies and turn-key plants leveraging 100+ years of collective team experience); and Metal Finishing (deburring, precision cleaning, vibratory and centrifugal finishing, and ultrafiltration). The firm uses AggFlow plant-modeling software for plant design, benchmarking, and equipment sizing, with Managing Partner Bob Bartok serving as a senior AggFlow trainer.

Paschal employs approximately 15 people, including seven degreed mining and metallurgical engineers who serve as territory-based sales engineers providing on-site plant process analysis, computer simulation, troubleshooting, optimization, and training. Revenue is generated through one-time capital equipment sales, recurring replacement-parts and consumables revenue, and professional services for plant layout, process analysis, and custom design. Pricing is quote-based and project-specific; no public pricing exists. The firm is founder-family owned (Bob Bartok, Managing Partner, with 40+ years of tenure) with no disclosed venture, private equity, or institutional ownership.
