The first stage of new tooling for Legend is now up and running and the results are superb. Legend is technically a great system but because the tools were old, the extrusion quality and finish was not up to the standards we produce for Shield and SynerJy customers. It's easy for companies to think they're saving money by bleeding every last metre from an extrusion tool, but quality will always suffer. Synseal has a rigid profile tooling programme, and as part of that programme all Legend tools are being replaced.
"It's essential to have good tooling for a consistent finish," says Steve Musgrave, Synseal's Manufacturing Director. "That's why we are changing every tool in the Legend suite in a £1.4 million investment programme. The first tools are already up and running; and the others will be here soon. The feedback from customers has been great."
"The problem with old tools is the level of consistency. From a fabricators perspective it can cause problems. So it's important we give Legend customers the same consistent high levels of finish we produce for other Synseal profile customers. We get these high levels by implementing a stringent re-tooling programme. And it's already started making a massive difference to the finish of Legend."
