Sudbury reported that there''s something going on in a former rail car refurbishment shop in Capreol that hasn''t been seen or heard in a long time: active manufacturing and the hiring of staff. A few weeks ago, Northern Heat Treat Ltd, a steel hardening business, began moving its operation to the 54,000 square foot complex on nine and a half acres on the northeast corner of the Greater City of Sudbury bedroom community. The buildings formerly housed the National Railway Equipment Co which refurbished and sold new and old locomotives for 17 years before closing down in 2017.
To get Northern Heat Treat up and running, there''s still a lot of work to be done in retrofitting and moving equipment, but co owners George Sidun Sr. and son George Sidun Jr. say the move is not causing disruption to fill orders. George Sr said that “We had to move out of our old 28,000 square foot location and this place was already available and was perfect for our needs. It had gotten to the point where we could not fit any more equipment on the floor. This is pretty much turnkey, with some modifications and upgrades needed so we can move our equipment in.”
George Jr. said that “We have one employee who bought a house here; they''ve permanently moved. We''ve already hired a few local people since moving. I''m not sure about how much of an economic impact we will have, but we are focusing on hiring and supporting local. This is our new home.”
They are already running three shifts five days a week, with some overtime depending on orders. All orders are already being shipped to the new location for processing. They''re already running an automated robot arm and rod straightening machine custom built for the job. The arm, originally designed to paint cars in automotive plants, loads and removes rods for manual straightening by a worker. They are in the process of replacing ovens used in the heat treating process with bigger, more powerful ones.
