Pictures for the Weekend
Hello everyone! Here are some photos to show a few more details of the new equipment. We have had all of the major systems of the SX-44 running now, so at this point, it's just down to the punch list items.

April in Bloomfield
Well, April is here, and we are feeling a healthy dose of optimism that comes with a new spring season in upstate New York. Besides the optimism that the nice weather brings, we are extremely optimistic about our new thermoformer.
The SX-44 project is coming together, with visible progress occurring daily. The frame is complete and in the paint booth, the form station is ready for assembly, and chainrail parts are almost all made. The trim presses are wired up and ready for the production programs to be installed on Monday. Besides that, we are keeping the CNC machines running around the clock on lots of tooling. Kudos to the guys on the shop floor making it happen, especially to the guys that took on the challenge of manning our second shift.
Here are some more photos showing some of the recent work:

A whole rack full of new trim tools:
Those are some LARGE cylinders!

Stay tuned for more updates!

TP-46 Progress
The TP-46 trim press is coming along nicely. We are in the process of making three of these right now, and they look great so far. Here are some photos:

First Post
Welcome to the Commodore Technology blog! We will be using this forum to keep you up to date on the latest happenings here at Commodore.
It has been a busy start for us here in 2009. So busy, in fact, that it is hard to believe that it is already March. We're anxiously awaiting the return of warmer weather here in New York, but it looks like it might be a while. This morning it was 9°F (-13°C) outside, which sure does not feel like spring!
Our current focus is the development of the latest additions to our product line, the SX-44 thermoformer, and the TP-46 trim press. These products represent our entry in to the arena of wide-web thermoforming. This new equipment will be designed and built using the same philosophy that Commodore has always embraced - simple, reliable, well built equipment that provides you with the best return on investment in the industry. Keep an eye out for more information and photos as this new equipment is being built over the next few months.
Speaking of simple, reliable equipment, the first member of the SX family, the SX-16, was delivered to one of our valued customers earlier in 2008. This thermoformer and trim press combination has already proven to be an exceptional performer, so much so that our customer has already ordered another one for delivery this spring.
I will post some specifications of the SX formers soon, but in the meantime, take a look at the video footage of the SX-16 below.
Thanks for reading!
