About the Project
In 2024, Crabtree overhauled a 1983 F-Coating Line with a full electrical rewire including a new PLC and touch-screen HMI, in addition to many other other upgrades tailored to increasing the machines performance.
The upgrade demonstrates that, in addition to making new machines, Crabtree is committed to supporting and developing legacy equipment of all ages.
