On 12th August, RPC Pty Ltd changed its name to Roblan Pty Limited. Roblan introduced robots and
automation to its plastic moulding manufacture. The Accessories Division (Tooling & Machine Components) was formed,
as the demand for high quality interchangeable tooling components
became more widespread in Australia. Roblan's Quality Management System received
certification to AS/NZS ISO 9002. Roblan's Quality Management System received
certification to QS-9000 in February. Roblan's Quality Management System received
certification to ISO/TS 16949 for the Metal Pressing Division. Roblan purchased the business assets and trading name
of Press Shop Automation - PSA.
The Metal Pressing Division was relocated to Ingleburn,
to
allow for expansion of the Moulding Division. The relocation included the installation of a Transfer Press Line of four 260 tonne presses.
The operation was moved from Foundry Road,
Seven Hills to Heald Road, Ingleburn, with Iain Elliott as National Sales Manager.
