10. Lefere Forge Recent Capital Investments and near term plans Most recent investment is another Carbide Saw for cutting steel. Additional investments also continue relating to keeping the forging facility in top operating condition, including building siding and complete over haul of the overhead crane in the forge building. Recent investment also includes a Toyoda CNC Vertical Machining Center in the die room for sinking large dies for non-symmetrical parts. Purchased first Viper V-1500 CNC Vertical Machining Center for the die room. This machine makes smaller to mid size dies for non-symmetrical parts. A new 300 ton press trim press has been purchased for the 10,000 pound hammer to allow for trimming of larger more complex parts. Constructed a new building for the protection of lubricants, drums and steel shavings from rain water run off etc. A third Carbide Saw has been added. Additional capacity required as the cost of annealing bar has rising greatly due to energy costs, making sawing more cost effective. Other capital projects to be reviewed as appropriate.
