FORMTEK ADDS ROLL TOOLING CAPABILITIES
Formtek, as part of a comprehensive plan to meet or exceed the heightened demands of the roll forming industry, has taken delivery of a new five-axis, dual chuck, machining center for its Cleveland location. This addition, along with their existing CNC equipment and other machines currently on order, will enable Formtek to produce roll tooling more efficiently, by eliminating many of the time consuming steps currently involved in tooling manufacture, while simultaneously increasing the quality and consistency of the tooling produced.
Formtek is the largest provider of tooling and equipment to the roll forming industry. With its Yoder, B&K, Dahlstrom, Tishken, and Lockformer brand names it can provide any type and size equipment required to meet the needs of its customers.
DARREN MUCHNICKI RETURNS TO FORMTEK
Formtek is pleased to announce some organizational additions that will help the Formtek Group and Formtek Metal Forming, Inc. in their continual strive for excellence in the roll forming equipment industry. We welcome back Mr. Darren Muchnicki as President of Formtek Metal Forming, Inc. He recently returned to Formtek after serving as Vice-President of Operations at American Roll Forming Products Corp, a contract manufacturer of roll formed products. Prior to that, Mr. Muchnicki had been with Formtek, and Yoder Manufacturing, for nearly 18 years. With a full career in manufacturing of capital equipment, his vast experience and involvement in modern manufacturing techniques will be of great addition to the organization.
