Stanley Black&Decker(纽约证券交易所代码:SWK)今天宣布将其制造足迹与德克萨斯州沃思堡的新工匠制造厂扩展。425,000平方英尺的设施的开创性将在2019年夏季进行,该工厂预计将于2020年底完成。
The new plant in Fort Worth will manufacture a wide range of CRAFTSMAN mechanics tools, including sockets, ratchets, wrenches and general sets. The plant will also leverage some of the most advanced manufacturing technologies available to optimize productivity and sustainability, including pre-flattening steel technologies to improve material yield by almost 25 percent, as well as water and energy management technologies to reduce resource consumption. The Fort Worth plant will employ approximately 500 full-time employees to support the facility.
“When we purchased CRAFTSMAN in 2017 we were determined to revitalize this iconic U.S. brand and bring back its American manufacturing heritage," said Stanley Black & Decker President and CEO Jim Loree. “From the launch of CRAFTSMAN's refreshed brand identity last year to our announcement of the first new manufacturing facility in many years, we’re demonstrating our continued commitment to grow the brand and bring even more production of these great products back to the United States.”
Stanley Black&Decker在2017年和次年购买了工匠,工匠在2018年8月推出了令人耳目一新的品牌标识,揭示了超过1,200个新产品。该品牌现在正在进行加速增长轨迹,达到2021年的增量收入10亿美元。
“这家新工厂也将是我们的制造设施网络中的最新工厂 - 一种使用最先进的制造技术,并展示了我们成为世界领导人在先进制造业的领导人之一的承诺,”洛伊继续。
Stanley Black&Decker目前在美国经营了大约30个制造设施,全球拥有100多种制造设施。公司拥有五个地点,这些地点已经开始在其设施中实施先进的行业4.0技术,从制造执行系统(MES),3-D印刷,虚拟现实和人工智能。
