ALUMINIUM
SAVING VALUABLE PRODUCTION TIME
Fabricators line up to use Jack Aluminium’s new end miller.
Making Jack Doors with the new end miller
gets rid of the bottleneck, freeing off the
fabrication line and improving productivity.”
Jeff Pearson, Jack Aluminium’s sales director
adds: “The demand for thermally efficient
commercial doors is growing. We designed
the Jack Door TD68 profile with a unique
thermal break that makes it much quicker and
easier to cut during fabrication.
IDF Aluminium Limited, Wynda
Components, Duplus Architectural
Systems, Sealtite and Ideal Windows are
amongst the first customers to slash even
more time off processing the successful
thermally-efficient TD68 Jack Door, using
Jack Aluminium’s new end miller.
Jack Aluminium worked with J Tools to
design the end miller that cuts the process
time from 15 minutes to just three, which can
save an hour’s valuable production time for
every five Jack Doors made - compared to a
typical thermally improved door.
‘Talking to customers is
an important part of our
product development’
Sean Mackey, Commercial Director at J
Tools Limited says: “We’ve been designing and
manufacturing tools for the glazing industry
for 20 years. Talking with customers is an
important part of our product development.
Working with Jack Aluminium to design
the end miller is a good example of how our
technical support and product development
can win more business for customers.”
