WE'RE MOVING!
Precision will be moving to Port Kells in July 2022. We’re very excited about our new location! We will have more space, a new larger capacity furnace, and a range of improvements to our other equipment.
Although it isn’t far away, moving all of our equipment and setting up in a new location is not a small undertaking. We have had a full-time crew at the new shop working since the beginning of the year, establishing layout and workflow and installing supply lines and electrical systems. This summer we will move our furnaces and equipment.
While we are doing our best to minimize disruption for our customers, unfortunately there will be some necessary adjustments over the next several months. This will happen in three phases:
• from May 15 through to the beginning of July, we will be operating at reduced capacity while we start moving some of our equipment. This will mean longer turnaround times, and/or delays for longer heat treat processes.
• We will be closed completely (no shipping and receiving, and no heat treating) for 2 weeks, from about July 1-15, to allow us to move and re-connect the rest of the equipment.
• We will be starting up with current equipment in the new location July 18. We should be back to current capacity by August. If all goes according to plan, the new furnace should be operational in September.
Please contact us ASAP if you have any concerns about meeting deadlines.
