Hello! I have got a few things to say about this press. It is still running around the clock today after all this years!!
It is upgraded to a 2200 ton extrusion press.
Wow! What a testament to the longevity of F & P presses. Thank you for posting this note. Long may the press continue in service. I suppose that it has paid for itself many times over!! John B [Ed.]
Hi John! Roger Goode at the controls, not much more I can add to that. Chippy Aston
Ed: I expect that you may be correct Chippy, however it would be nice if someone else could also corroborate it. John B
