2020 Enhancing Decorating, Safety, and Operational Efficiency
2020 – The addition of a new Two-Color Pad Printing/Decorating system from industry leader Pad Print Machinery of Vermont allows custom decorating of customer components with a larger print size envelope. Complementing the new pad printing asset, Nelson Miller Group also installed a direct-vent commercial exhaust hood to provide more safety to our team in handling and mixing paints and inks related to pad-printing decorating applications. A heavy-duty, adjustable size automated box taping machine was purchased to support Nelson Miller Group Value-Adding Secondary Operations Department's work, allowing high speed, repeatable and visually consistent tape closures of product boxes. IW also replaced a 180-ton full hydraulic machine with a new 240-ton hybrid Servo Electric / Hydraulic horizontal molding machine, enhancing process repeatability, reliability, flexibility and energy efficiency.
Nelson Miller Group also upgraded phone and data connectivity reliability by connecting to new fiber optic links to our local service providers. Also, an all-new cloud-based telephone system offers new and easy call-forwarding features that help IW staff stay connected to our Customers and valued partner-suppliers.
