First Stage Ends

We have come to the end of the first major stage of our press installation with the placement of the feeder and delivery units. All of the really big heavy pieces are now in place and bolted together, and today the crew disassembled the red gantry.

But there is still a lot of work to do. The electrical connections of a modern press are incredibly complicated and time consuming to prepare and test. Over the next several weeks the technicians will be installing the peripheral units that contain the controls for the air movement systems, power systems, and dryer systems.
