30/10/07Implantation of new presses on Metalpó

         In recent months Metalpó has been investing in the expansion of productive capacity. One of these investments was the acquisition of new presses for compaction and calibration. In addition to having new features that make the product easier to manufacture, the presses allow greater quality control during the process. According to Silvio Bartoletti, industrial manager of Metalpó, “Some adjustments were made to the tool whenever it caused several interruptions during production or during set up of the machine; in the new ones the adjustments are made on the machine, thereby avoiding frequent actions by the ironworkers that required more time in new assembly, adjustment and so on.” Silvio also underscores the increase in productivity: “I believe that with 5 machines--four for compaction and one for calibration, besides a sintering furnace with a capacity of 250kg/hr--and a new steam iron furnace that came into operation recently, our company has taken an important step towards leadership in some market segments.”
Metalpó /Gasbarre start up Team

         To ensure the perfect deployment of the first three equipments, Gasbarre, an American company that supplies presses, sent Andrew Whyte, an engineer who provides technical assistance, to monitor the completion of the equipment assembly and to train the employees in the sector. "I’ve been with Gasbarre for two years and during this period I have visited more than 20 countries doing this work, and Brazil is my favorite one. Metalpó in particular is a company that has an excellent organizational work climate; all the employees are very considerate and the corporation provides the full structure necessary to perform the work.” Andrew, who came to Brazil for the 8th time to work, still wishes to leave a special message to the teams who received their training: “I thank you all for your attention and commitment throughout the training. All of you are great professionals, dedicated students and good friends. I thank you for your excellent teamwork and responsiveness”.
