This is a headline. I already came up with a translation. "We help you solve manufacturing tasks successfully." Now, we absolutely need to have this in two sentences/lines, because it will be printed in two different colours. Any ideas? Thanx.

Do you need to solve manufacturing tasks successfully? Rely on our support.
Assistance, care, supervision, help, services etc. but I think support has the emotive appeal.
I don't see who you can 'solve' a task? Maybe 'deal with' or 'handle' is better than 'solve'?

: I also agree with your Disagree re. the Asker's translation. Is it possible to solve something unsuccessfully? ;-)

Need help...? You can count on us.
Need help with manufacturing tasks?
You can count on us.
As Chris (Textklick) pointed out, you can't "solve" a task (either successfully or unsuccesfully). I think it's clear that the idea here is to successfully solve the client's production problems.
Alternatively:
Need help tackling production challenges?
You can count on us.
OR:
Need help tackling production challenges?
Give us a call!
OR (a slightly freer version):
Need production support?
We're here to help.
Or some combination of the above.
You can count on us.
