Canway Equipment Mfg. Tandem Line in Operation
July 16, 2025Comments
A new coil-fed stamping line, developed by Linear Automation and featuring five gap-frame presses integrated with five six-axis robots, including an end-of-line racking system, has enabled Hamilton, Ontario-based Canway Equipment Mfg. to reshore production of its most important product line: stair treads for its line of rolling, mobile ladder stands.
“We made this significant investment not only to reshore production of the treads but also to improve throughput," explains Roland Verhey, head of operations and sales at the company. “And, we intentionally build capacity for the future. The auto racking and inline coil feeder, for example, give us a lot of flexibility as we continue to expand.”
