The production of traditional compres-
sion springs, which will continue to play
an important future role in Bor, has also
been restructured according to the prin-
ciple of continuous production. This ad-
ditionally provides the space required
to meet future demands of the market
by offering an even wider range of
products. All the processes from raw
material handling and machining to
storage of the end products in a mod-
ern flow-rack storage system are trans-
parent, traceable and extremely clean.
This also applies to the above-men-
tioned long compression springs, an
area in which the plant in Bor is partic-
ularly specialised. These components
demand high-level skills and knowl-
edge in terms of spring coiling, the nec-
essary quality parameters as well as
the coating and flocking. At the Group’s
Czech location, the extensive know-
how in valve production, which we re-
ported on in the last issue of
SCHERDELnews, has led to the devel-
opment of a special machine. This idea
has since been put into practice by the
SCHERDEL subsidiary AFEMA. To
date, nine of these innovative machines
have been built and are successfully in
use in Bor and at the manufacturing lo-
cation of SCHERDEL Sales & Technol-
ogy (SST) in the U.S. city of Muskegon.
It remains to mention that restructur-
ing of the plant in Bor also included
bringing the logistics up to the standard
of industry best practice. A new roofed
zone between the workshops ensures
the shortest possible routes for the de-
livery of raw materials and the collec-
tion of the finished products. Moreover,
the location now has its own shipping
department for supplying customers
worldwide.
