Hanover, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/02/2014 -- Precision Cut Industries has received ISO 14001 certification for their entire manufacturing facilities located in Hanover, PA. Already certified to the international quality certification ISO 9001, the ISO 14001 certification is an important environmental milestone for the company. It means their manufacturing process is in compliance with this important environmental standard, which fits with their core values and partnership mentality. This certification is a reflection of their commitment to their ongoing relationship with Volvo Construction.

Many companies and government agencies require that the manufacturers they do business with, be certified ISO 14001 compliant. Precision Cut Industries can now offer their expertise in laser cutting, bending and welding to a wider array of potential customers.

Brian Greenplate, CEO of Precision Cut Industries, says of his company's certification, "We see being ISO 140001 certified, as a natural reflection of our existing environmental practices. We have always been diligent about the waste products associated with our manufacturing processes and disposing of them in the most environmentally friendly way possible."

ISO stands for The International Organization of Standards. They chose the letters ISO to represent the organization as they operate in the English, French and Russian languages equally. Since each language would abbreviate the name differently, ISO was chosen because it means 'equal' in the Greek language. ISO is an organization that lays out processes in manufacturing that promote efficiency, cost savings and environmental preservation. The standards are not part of any regulatory agency, but rather are a voluntary set of standards.

Hanover, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/29/2014 -- Precision Cut Industries puts their manufacturing skills to use in rebuilding America's Hydroelectric Energy Infrastructure.

Precision Cut Industries of Hanover, PA sits at the forefront of laser cutting manufacturing. With two manufacturing facilities in south-central Pennsylvania, they have established themselves as leaders in laser cutting, welding and materials bending, utilizing a unique expertise in lean manufacturing. They have announced that they are applying their highly accurate laser cutting techniques to help retrofit America's energy infrastructure. They are doing this specifically in the hydroelectric energy industry.

Hydroelectric dams work by using the force of the water flow to turn turbines, which in turn spin generators to produce electricity. Most dams have a number of turbines and generators. The oldest hydroelectric energy plants in the country are in need of turbine and generator upgrades. Precision Cut Industries supplies laser cut laminations which play a critical role in upgrading the hydroelectric generator. Each generator requires as many as 10,000 rotor laminations. The laser cutting of generator rotor laminations, which requires extreme precision within a few 1/1000's of an inch, is a specialty of Precision Cut Industries.

Brian Greenplate, President of Precision Cut Industries, says about their manufacturing process, "We have an established track record as being both able to deliver the precision specs needed for the hydroelectric industry, and for delivering projects on time."

While hydroelectric energy has been touted as a relatively clean form of energy, much of its physical infrastructure is in need of renewal. Most hydroelectric infrastructure in the United States dates back to the Depression Era. The Hoover Dam is the best known hydroelectric dam in the US, though it ranks #50 on the world's list largest hydroelectric dams. It was completed in the late thirties, typical of the majority of power plants producing hydroelectric energy.
