Subtraction by Addition Pays off for Oven Manufacturer
|
From Mitsubishi EDM/Laser
It's a manager's dream: free up machine operators, get rid of unneeded equipment, and expand a company's manufacturing capabilities by ADDING machinery. One might call it "subtraction by addition." And it's what The Grieve Corporation accomplished recently with the purchase of a new Mitsubishi laser cutting machine. The Grieve Corporation dates back to its 1949 founding by G.P. Grieve. Originally a fabricator of sheet-metal parts, the Grieve Corporation was drawn into production of industrial ovens by customer demand. Today these ovens come in all sizes and shapes and serve a tremendous range of markets - paint curing: medical, pharmaceutical, and biotechnological laboratories: stress relief in metals: curing of solid state modules for electronics: the aircraft industry: the automotive industry, and even hydrogen embrittlement of metals. The Grieve Corporation manufactures a stock line of ovens and also offers custom design and manufacture of ovens to customer requirements. Industrial furnaces for heat treating a variety of metals at temperatures up to 2,200ºF were added to the line about 15 years ago. Products & Services
EDM tooling, electrodes, fixtures, materials, guides and other supplies are used in electrical discharge machining (EDM), a highly-accurate manufacturing process for creating shapes within components and assemblies.
