Thanks for the post. I enjoy stuff like this. Injection molding, right?

Post up photos of the new machine when it's being set.

That's impressive. Sorry it costs so much, but it's cool stuff to see happen.

Did you have to reinforce the concrete flooring? My family owned a sheetfed printing company outside DC for 50 years and I remember whenever we ordered a huge press from Germany we had issues with concrete due to weight of those massive beasts. Your factory flooring looks pretty new so thinking it was built for the stress of your equipment.

Strange to see timber columns in a seismic zone 4...
Old panelized roof with Glu lambs and purlins. Doubt with current roof load calcs it would pass. Been on many structural upgrades on this type of roof.

Yeah we have 4 Elion 3200's and just received a Elios 7500. Three of them have Muller IML robots on them.
Though I'm pro Husky they weren't competitive with Netstal for some reason.
