Production Facility Expansion

automobile metal stamping

February 25, 2020

We recently completed a 71,000 sq. ft. expansion at our Farmington Road production facility. This creates an additional 30,000 sq. ft. for our press room and 41,000 sq. ft. for our assembly area. The expansion will allow us to position stamping, laser cutting, and assembly in one building. This will reduce transportation and WIP, while also improving quality control and our quality feedback loop. We added two new 500 ton and seven new 300 ton hydraulic presses. We also relocated a 500 ton hydraulic press and a 1,000 ton mechanical press to our new press room. With 300,000 sq. ft. at our production facility, we are able to meet your metal forming needs more efficiently and effectively.
