PMF Industries completes expansion in Pennsylvania

PMF Industries has completed a new, 14,000-sq.ft. expansion at its 140,000-sq.-ft. facility in Williamsport, Pa. The facility now includes a hot-spinning operation and Class 1000 clean room area, along with the company’s existing mechanical polishing, electropolishing, and passivation operations. Its new flow forming equipment can produce flow-formed parts up to 48 in. dia.

The new hot-spinning operation will produce canisters able to withstand up to 5,000 PSI of pressure to hold compressed natural gas, oxygen, and other gases used for transportation, pharmaceutical, and military applications.

The company is relocating its mechanical polishing, electropolishing, and passivation operations to the new site, which offers better air filtration and a brighter, more spacious work environment. The new electropolishing and passivation area will feature new tanks, an overhead hoist system, and the addition of a citric acid bath for use with more environmentally sensitive applications.

The Class 1000 clean room will allow the company to meet additional stringent testing requirements associated with microelectronics and pharmaceutical applications.
