Expansion of Slitting/Edging Operations
September 1, 2017
United Performance Metals (UPM) has announced the addition of a new edging line for the Hamilton, OH, headquarters as well as the addition of slitting and edging operations in its West Coast branch in La Mirada, CA.
The Ohio headquarters installed new edging equipment, while the existing Ohio edging line and 12" slitting equipment have been transferred to the California branch. This allows for slitting and edging capabilities in both facilities.
"The additional edging capability in our West Coast facility complements the current slitting operations in that branch. Having edging capacity in multiple locations allows us to offer customers shorter lead times and faster delivery, regardless of our customer's geographic location," remarked JJ Johnson, Director of Operations.
"Edging lines are capable of delivering a #1 round or #5 partial or full square skived edge," Operations Manager Roger Haire said. "Our edging equipment can also be customized to minimize camber for customers who require the tightest tolerance. 2R and 3R groove inserts are also available."
