In addition, RMF recently completed the installation of a new automated, part-specific, recipe-driven heavy zinc phosphate line. This line is capable of coating parts in a barrel or rack with the application of pre-black, heavy oil, dry-to-touch or no oil. The company says the line currently operates on a 10-hour/shift schedule with plans to grow into a 3 shift, 5 day/week schedule.
RMF says the new technology is critical for growth in the automotive, agriculture and general fastener industries.
