C & W Spinning, Inc., on the corner of Division St. and Maple Ave., is expanding to make room for their new machine, the Prima Power turret press.
Delivered in an early November snow storm, the new press, weighing in at 33,000 pounds, was shipped in nearly a dozen pieces, allowing assembly within the building. The press replaces an older, smaller unit and allows faster manufacture as well as hands-off capabilities that permit night and weekend operation without requiring a full crew.
The expansion on the front of the building will house offices for the business, allowing the rearranging of space to accommodate the new machine.
C & W Spinning does the majority of their work for the filter industry, concentrating on the manufacture of parts that are used in oil refining.
The company, founded in 1978 by the late Daryl Corey, is family owned and operated and moved to Maple Lake in 1992. Current head, Dale Corey, said that 2014 was one of the company’s best ever, and additional expansion is planned for 2015.
