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.
