For Immediate Release - York, PA April 30, 2009

Hundreds of customers, vendors, family and friends visited our new headquarters and manufacturing facility during the Weldon Solutions Open House on Wednesday, April 29th.

Guests were invited to tour the plant at their leisure or with Weldon personnel. Visitors saw a Peel Grinding demonstration and robotic cell installations in the new Demo Area, an overview of robotic simulation software, an explanation of Weldon's use of the patented sheer damper base in their grinder manufacturing, an overview of their Toshiba drives business, and automation components including bakery material handling, material removal and machine tending. The informal tour concluded with a demonstration of their Remstar inventory management system.

A picnic meal prepared and served by Weldon personnel was also provided for everyone who attended. Family and friends of employees joined in late in the day to tour the new facility and celebrate the success that Weldon has enjoyed.

Weldon Solutions traces its roots back to the Flinchbaugh family of the late 19th century. The company name has evolved from Weldon Hydraulics to Weldon Machine Tool to Weldon Solutions. The company recently moved into a new 40,000 square foot manufacturing facility and company headquarters to accommodate the design and manufacture of its industry-leading CNC Cylindrical Grinders and Automated Robotic and Material Handling Systems.

The Weldon grinder line consist of 9 different grinders (OD, ID and OD/ID) that can now accurately finish parts up to 60" in length. Weldon grinders operate reliably and efficiently in the automotive, diesel, aerospace, medical and other industries. Customers have come to rely on the rugged dependability of their Weldon grinders as they finish both ferrous and non-ferrous materials to incredibly demanding levels of precision.

As a FANUC Robotics System Integrator for the past 10 years, Weldon Solutions has automated a broad range of cost saving applications for manufacturers in many industries. Recent projects utilized robots for machine loading, product stacking, adhesive application and quality inspection. The use of machine vision to guide the path of a robot has been at the heart of recent installations.
