On-Site Service Relocation of Manufacturing Facility Equipment
 |
JB Tool, Die & Engineering, Inc. employs outstanding engineers who are skilled in shop floor know-how. This technical assistance was called upon when a customer needed to relocate their manufacturing facility to another state. In less than six months our engineering and project management team completed the project to the customer's satisfaction.
This relocation project required us to perform engineering
upgrades on the new site in addition to designing the layout of the new floor
space. Once the new site was ready to receive the equipment, the breakdown of
the old facility began: 13 manufacturing cells, containing 6 major pieces of
equipment each, were removed for relocation. We worked with the client to find
properly insured, local subs to handle the rigging and millwright services needed
for equipment removal and reinstallation, technical services, and advice
throughout the project. During this relocation, machinery repairs and necessary
upgrades were performed by our approved, subcontracted millwrights. After
re-installation, we furnished new product handling systems and worked with the
client as they performed line shakedowns. We were also involved with machine
qualification, process capability, and staff training to ensure that the
facility would be up and running when this relocation was complete.
