| | Dallas : New Orders |
 | | The system, a new press feed line for transforming coil stock to cut-to-length blanks is from Dallas Industries, Inc. of Troy, MI. |
 | | The fully automated line includes a powered, coil handling reel with load car, a servo feed featuring a simple Allen Bradley touch screen control, a pull-thru straightener to remove residual bend from the material, a shear for cutting the stock, an integrated hydraulic press for notching the panels plus a destacking/stacking unit. |
 | | With the Dallas line in place, company personnel anticipate equipment payback, by eliminating the purchase costs and reducing operational costs of handling the blanks, to be as short as two years. |
