Wapato, Washington
In 2005, to support a rapid increase in production growth, we completed
our $1,300,000 Wapato facility expansion. With this capital expansion,
we upgraded to a state of the art air handling system, installed a
new substation for significantly more electrical power, and added
custom loading docks to streamline our just-in-time delivery systems.
Through these improvements we improved the overall production flow
by adding specialized manufacturing space with a part trimming facility
and material storage area.
Wapato offers the latest technology in computer controlled vacuum
forming equipment. That, along with our specialized rapid plastic
sheet handing capability, we are capable of producing some of the
deepest draw formed parts in the industry.
Several dedicated production lines are in operation at Wapato including
standard height Helmet Hardtop® and Mobile Advantage Mealstar®
vehicles. Helmet Hardtops®, a product used on military HMMWV and
trailers, are manufactured in both armor and non-armor variants. Amtech’s
armor, or Armor Solution’s products, is produced using the most
advanced Vacuum Assisted Resin Transfer Molding (VARTM) technology.
Our VARTM capability is our most recent facility capital investment
which will enable us to produce armored products essential for the
safety of U.S. Armed Forces, as well as intricate parts for commercial
markets. |
