Granco Clark supplies APEL Extrusions, Inc. with a full heating and handling system to its UBE press

APEL Extrusions, Inc. is expanding their production capacity in the new Coburg, OR facility by adding a new UBE press and Granco Clark Heating and Handling System (installation in July 2014). The Granco Clark equipment features the best high pressure spray quenching technology available, a cut-on-the fly double puller, high velocity cooling ducts, 100 Ton profile stretcher, a complete belt/convey¬or handling system, and a log furnace with hot billet saw.

Once this equipment is installed they will move the current production line (UBE press and Granco heating and handling system) from the old facility (Springfield, OR) to the new facility.

Founded in 1947, Granco Clark began manufacturing billet furnaces and has evolved into a worldwide, cutting-edge single-source supplier and leading equipment manufacturer in the aluminum extrusion industry.

With a proven track record of manufacturing the most dependable and durable equipment in the business, Granco Clark continually develops groundbreaking technology to improve its products – ranging from billet / log furnaces, hot log saws, FusionBond® to Age Ovens and Stacking equipment.

The company was the first to introduce the integrated control system technology that has since developed into SCSExtrude – the next-generation technology for optimizing automated extrusion line performance.

Another key to Granco Clark’s success is listening to customers and designing its products to their specific needs. The end results are improved productivity, energy conservation, waste reduction, and cost savings for customers.
