A trio of new projects completed since 2008 have allowed Mitchell Metal Products, a Merrill, WI, metal stamper and fabricator, to maintain machining as an inhouse core competency.

Its realization came as it sought to increase activity on its newest mechanical press-a 400-ton model from Blow Press, acquired in 2004, with a 48- by 96-in. bed and 32-in. windows. Before that acquisition, press capacity topped out at 150 tons.
