- New Ring Mill to be Installed 2011
As previously announced, McInnes Rolled Rings placed a purchase order with SMS MEER GmbH Ring Rolling Division (Wagner), in conjunction with Girard Associates, for a RAW 160/160 Radial-Axial ring rolling machine. The new mill is scheduled to be delivered early in the 4th quarter of 2011 with full production to begin in the 1st quarter of 2012. With architectural and building design complete the initial site preparations will begin early in the fall of this year.
This commitment will allow McInnes Rolled Rings to produce rings above 90”in diameter with weights in excess of 4,000 lbs in carbon, alloy and stainless steel. The new mill will target and expand the company’s existing base of business in the power transmission, energy, and the commercial/aircraft bearing markets. The new 160/160 will complement the existing RAW 63/63 and the KFRW-630 mills producing rings from 4” (100mm) to 70” (1800mm).
The new mill will be located at the company’s headquarters in Erie, Pennsylvania.
- Steel Prices
Steel prices have been steadily moving up over the past 9 months along with most other commodities. The attached graph gives you a good idea of just what we have been seeing. Expectations for the next quarter are for a continuation of this upward trend, even though in May we did see prices go "down" slightly.

- McInnes achieves AS9100B Cert
McInnes Rolled Rings achieves AS9100B Certification
McInnes Rolled Rings is proud to announce that our quality management system has achieved AS9100B certification. We are committed to our quality management system and have integrated it into all aspects of the company since our ISO 9001 certification was achieved in 2003. The upgrade to AS9100 allowed us to step back, look at our system, and make changes necessary for AS9100 that also promote continuous improvement. The AS9100B standard includes all of the elements of ISO 9001 with additional requirements specific to the aerospace industry.
Through the efforts of each associate McInnes Rolled Rings achieved certification to AS9100B on December 21, 2009. We have also implemented the changes that AS9100C brings and plan to upgrade at our first surveillance audit. We will use the changes to our quality management system to meet our goal … continually improve customer satisfaction by shipping acceptable rings on-time at a competitive price!
