The decision to invest in a 220-ton Nissei two-shot press was a strategic move made by C&J Industries, Meadville, Pa., to expand its capabilities. The selection of this press was a deliberate internal project aimed at gaining experience in this specialized process. By matching the press with its two-shot coaster, the company addressed the growing demand for products that require two-shot capabilities.
Machine Design, a fellow Endeavor Business Media brand, reached out to John Hanninen, senior engineer of new business development at C&J Industries, to learn about the process, its advantages and its challenges.
