Pittsfield Plastics added a robot to pick “runners” out of the production line on a 300-ton injection molding press. The robot picks parts out of the line, supporting manufacturing employees as they meet customer demand and ship product out on time every time. The company eventually plans to add larger robots that will pull parts off the press and stack them on pallets and will steadily add more robots to its production process to help employees and facilitate continued sales growth.

Pittsfield Plastics’ slicer got an upgrade so it can cut larger barrel sizes many customers want: it can now cut up to an 8″ inside diameter barrel. Call to learn more — 413-442-0067.
