After building a new 6,000 square foot addition last year to its Coloma manufacturing facility, SPI Industries has invested again in major new equipment in order to increase press production capacity and deliver a faster turnaround to industrial customers across the world.

SPI's Blow Molding Division on Bessemer Road in Coloma expanded substantially last fall after garnering tax abatements from the Hagar Township Board, and now they have installed a new Impco B30 Press with a 5 lb accumulator, twin 2.5 lb heads, and both manual and auto controllers as a part of that major expansion project. 

Since completion of a newly constructed 6,000 square foot warehouse at the Bessemer Road site, SPI Blow Molding has stabilized and grown. Company officials say that with increased demand for plastic manufacturing in Michigan and Indiana as well as throughout the Great Lakes region, the new installed press will allow SPI to keep up with the increased demand.

SPI Blow Molding Engineer Nick Kraus says, "By investing in the latest technology we are increasing our flexibility and production capabilities, along with automation for larger quantities." He adds, "The new machine will work alongside SPI's existing machines on the production line to significantly increase our volume and capacity."
