Wrobel Engineering (Wrobel) is pleased to announce the completion of its 2014 Capital Improvement Strategy targeting new technologies, gear upgrades, facility improvements, and workforce initiatives. Investments were fully self funded and position the business for continued expansion into new markets in 2015.

“Our 2014 capital improvements had been designed and implemented to accomplish important 2015/16 enterprise objectives,” stated Ed Wrobel, Vice President of Operations. “Nonetheless, these investments also reflect our extended-term and ongoing company policy of staying on the top-edge of CNC machining and metal fabrication technologies. Our strength and ability to fund improvements independently gives us the competitive benefit to respond swiftly to sector adjustments, consumer requirements, and new opportunities.”

Technologies improvements:
Renishaw Probing: onboard inspection for three CNC milling centers, significantly decreasing setups and downtimes and enabling increased productivity and batch size flexibility.
CAD Software: Updates for eight workstations to all existing versions of Pro-E, Solidworks, and Epicor E9 for enterprise resource arranging (ERP Method), making sure maximum efficiency and complete compatibility for all client wants.
Gear improvements:
Installation of 3 new Hurco Milling Centers, successfully doubling capacity and substantial minimizing delivery times for orders of any size.
Facility improvements:
Construction of self-contained region for components inspection, with sound and vibration controls, and independent utilities and ventilation enabling highest-level calibration of QC equipment.
Installation of four new HVAC units for humidity handle (components rust prevention) and improved atmosphere (workforce functionality and productivity).
Workforce initiatives:
Establishment of relationships with two regional Technical Vocational High Schools with funding for seasonal employment positions and continuing education internships (college level).
Stated Elizabeth Wrobel, President of Wrobel Engineering, “Our 2014 initiatives strengthen our manufacturing positions in the data storage, telecommunications, robotics, and controls industries and will drive our continued expansion into the military, health-related, and aerospace sectors.
