Biggest obstacle overcome – Stamping house needs a large capacity Surface Grinder for Press tooling maintenance.

Orchid Monroe LLC in Monroe, Michigan was desperately in need of a large capacity Surface Grinder to Grind big bolster plates and tooling for their stamping presses. While needing a large Grinder Orchid also wanted a machine that could produce high finishes on their tooling. Orchid poured a concrete isolation pad/foundation before taking delivery of their new Willis 3280-3A Surface Grinder. Once our technician leveled the Grinder and we fired it up Orchid’s toolmaker’s were thrilled with the finishes they were able to achieve.

Since this install we very recently delivered a Willis 2480-3A Surface Grinder to a General Motors Stamping Plant in Flint, Michigan, GM was shopping around for a Grinder for Press Tooling maintenance, and after seeing these photo’s and talking to Orchid they went with a Willis.
