Hydro Aluminum expands extrusion fabrication, machining services at Missouri plant
- June 28, 2010
- News Release
- Metals/Materials
Hydro Aluminum's Extrusion North America unit has invested significant capital and personnel in its Monett, Mo., extrusion facility. This investment is part of the company's long-term strategy to build its portfolio of services for the central region to include second-stage manufacturing processes: fabrication, bending, and CNC machining.
In March Hydro consolidated into the Monett facility select equipment and personnel from its Cassville, Mo., plant, which was located 20 miles from the Monett facility. All extrusion, second-stage manufacturing processes, material handling, packaging, loading, and shipping to support the central region customers now are handled out of Monett.
The company also has hired Mark Groene as fabrication sales engineer at Monett.
These moves follow Hydro's November overhaul of the Monett facility's material handling processes. The company re-engineered ovens, redesigned material racks, replaced carts, and remapped material movement through the plant.
