格瑞夫在荷兰新建高速中小型钢桶生产线，并改进钢桶结构

文/三哥

格瑞夫最近宣布，在其位于荷兰弗里兰的工厂增加了一条新的小型钢桶高速生产线。

为了最大限度地提高客户的整体体验，该投资将为小型闭口钢桶(12 L至38 L)的生产带来显著的效率收益，提高性能，优化交货期，并提供交货灵活性。此外，工厂在生产线上增加了一台新的焊机，这将进一步提高焊接质量，并有望显著提高整体设备效率(OEE)。

小钢桶的客户会注意到桶的外观的变化：在颈部(如下图所示)结构的改进，钢板的厚度将会是标准化的0.62 mm的厚度，以增加钢桶的整体强度。工厂经理Mathieu Postma表示:“像这样的投资可以提高效率，提高产品性能，巩固了Greif成为世界上表现最好的客户服务公司的承诺。”

格瑞夫的弗里兰工厂成立于1930年，拥有超过50名员工。该厂专业生产中小型钢桶(12升至63升)，包括钢塑复合桶、圆锥桶、开口桶和紧闭口桶。除了在弗里兰的工厂，格瑞夫还经营着一家油漆工厂，成立于1952年，为全球包装行业生产内部和外部涂料。

New high speed production line launched in Vreeland

Greif is pleased to announce the addition of a new high speed production line for small steel drums at its plant in Vreeland in The Netherlands. 

Developed to maximize the overall customer experience, the investment will bring significant efficiency gains to the production of small tight head steel drums (12 L to 38 L), improving performance, optimizing lead times and offering delivery flexibility.

Additionally, the plant added a new welding machine as part of the production line, which will further improve the welding quality and is expected to significantly increase overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).  

Customers of small steel drums will notice changes in the appearance of the drum: at the neck (as shown in the diagram below) and in the thickness of the steel which will be a standardized thickness of 0.62 mm to increase the overall strength of the drum.

“Investments such as this, which deliver efficiency gains and enhanced product performance, underpin Greif’s commitment to becoming the world’s best performing customer service company,” Mathieu Postma, plant manager, said.

Greif’s Vreeland facility was established in 1930 and has over 50 employees. The plant specializes in the production of small and intermediate steel drums (12 L to 63 L) which include combi-drums, conical drums, open head drums and tight head drums. Alongside this facility in Vreeland, Greif operates a Paint Factory, established in 1952, which produces internal and external coatings for the packaging industry worldwide.
