Our Value Added Services Include Automation - Kent Elastomer Products

Our Value Added Services Include Automation

At our Kent and Mogadore facilities, where we manufacture dip-molded and tubing products, one of the value-added services KEP provides customers is quality control through automation. Implemented with automated inspection systems, our manufacturing processes are accurate, reliable and fast. Our high-quality, consistent products protect our customers’ bottom line and ensure consumer satisfaction.

The automated equipment also enables us to assemble high-quality products – every time – by helping to remove human error at our Winesburg facility where we handle processing and assembly. In 2017, KEP added about 6,000 square feet of warehouse space and additional automated assembly equipment to the Winesburg facility.

We have an ongoing commitment to Lean Enterprise and Six Sigma practices – finding ways to automate our processes contributes to our goal of maximizing value and minimizing waste. Whether you want to reduce costs or are exploring the best assembly services for your product, ask KEP how our automated processes can be a part of your solution!
