Top-Tier Manufacturer of Polyimide Tubing and High-Performance Films Receives Equipment Update

Holliston, MA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 03/15/2019 -- American Durafilm Co., Inc. is pleased to announce the addition of a new truck oven (also known as a walk-in or truck-in oven) to its Holliston, MA facility. The new machine will be replacing one of American Durafilm's 60-year-old ovens and features a much larger capacity than its previous generation. Its innovative design will allow for increased fuel efficiency and can accommodate about three times the capacity of the prior oven, while occupying the same amount of floor space. From a productivity standpoint, the new oven reduces total bake time required of production components to about a fourth of the time needed by the previous oven. This increase in efficiency is due to a cleaner environment within the oven itself and a more uniform distribution of heat when the machine is activated. This valuable addition to American Duraflim's manufacturing floor will help reduce lead times in the shop and enable continued production of the highest-quality, custom-coated products on the market.

Jon Goodwin, General Manager of American Durafilm, said, "We are very excited to gain this new bit of technology. It should provide a much-needed boost in capacity while reducing our fuel consumption and lead times. We will continue to look for new opportunities to increase efficiency and optimize our production processes as we look to take on considerable growth in the coming years."
