Montana Precision Parts—an industrial- and aerospace-parts manufacturer located just outside Butte on Rick Jones Way—has plans to grow by 80 to 100 employees by 2020, says company general manager Chris Eurich.
According to Eurich, the expansion will be thanks to a new piece of equipment Montana Precision purchased last month from KEA Automation — a company from Telford, U.K., that makes automated systems for the casting industry.
Euirch said the $1.5 million piece of equipment will be an “aerospace shell line” that includes a humidity-controlled environment and a robot than can automate various parts of the casting process.
In case you’re not privy to world of casting, Montana Precision Products makes parts for jet engines and industrial equipment in a process that involves, among other things, molding, casting and (the best part) pouring liquid-hot metal.
