Kelsch Machine in Paoli, Wisconsin

 

Bruce Kiesling inherited a shop full of CECOR carts when he purchased Kelsch Machine Corporation in 1984. Located in scenic Paoli, Wisconsin, Kelsch Machine is a fifty-person precision machine job shop running two full shifts. Bruce has remained a CECOR customer because he likes the way CECOR heavy-duty steel carts hold up in the tough machine shop environment. Some of Kelsch’s CECOR carts are over forty years old.

Bruce also likes the way CECOR carts chip handling easier. “The carts fit under the conveyors, they roll easily and they are very convenient for draining and dumping”. Bruce gets the drain plug option so he can elevate the cart with a CECOR dumping frame and drain the excess oil from the chips prior to dumping into the recycler’s dumpster. The carts are convenient for keeping scrap separated in Kelsch’s recycling room. Stainless steel, aluminum, plastic and other material must be kept separate for the recycler.

As a contract manufacturer, the customer sometimes supplies a scrap receptacle. “Cardboard gaylords are common in the plastic industry,” Bruce noted. “But they don’t dump and they are subject to weaken when getting wet.” Also, 55-gallon drums can be a problem. They have “sharp edges and can be dangerous and unwieldy. They are also difficult to move.”
