Bowman introduces Injection Molded Polycarbonate Glove Dispensers

July 19, 2011 – Arlington, WA – Bowman Manufacturing Company, Inc., the leading manufacturer of personal protection equipment dispensers announces the addition of a new line of injected molded Glove Dispensers to its expansive product line.

The new GL100 and GL300 series polycarbonate glove line has been designed to compete with acrylic plastic products often available at the economy pricing end of the market. However, acrylic plastic does not possess the same physical properties as polycarbonate and PETG, namely general toughness in high-use traffic areas and a resisitance to damage by a wide range of commercial cleaning products. By introducing a line of injection molded single and triple glove dispensers, Bowman is able to bring toughness, aesthetic appeal and functionality at a price-point that competes with lesser products.

"We understand our customers are concerned with aesthetics, functionality and cost. With our new injection molded glove line we offer compelling solutions in all three areas. We can also take comfort in Bowman's focus in providing a comprehensive range of products that provide both excellent value and protect workers in a wide range of industries," said Paul Humphreys, VP/General Manager, Bowman Products Group.

This new product line is sold exclusively through Bowman's national network of healthcare distributors throughout North America and Europe. Visit www.BowmanDispensers.com for where-to-buy information.

Bowman Manufacturing announces the commissioning of the Prima Finn Power/Kuka Robotic Press Brake Cell

March 4, 2011 – Arlington, WA – Bowman Manufacturing Company, Inc. is pleased to announce the commissioning of the Prima Finn Power Robotic Press Brake.

This robotic cell is one of the most technologically advanced bending cells on the west coast today. With the Kuka’s 7 axis movement, it can handle small parts with amazing dexterity and large parts to 297 lbs with ease and safety. One of the keys to this Robotic Bending cell is the Prima Finn Power E Brake which offers equal bending forces all along the press brakes 120” bed length. With even pressure every 2.5” along the bending length, the result is “dead flat bending” without the use or need of crowning and or shimming. Our customers rave about the exceptionally high tolerance bending and how exceptionally flat & square our parts are.

"The new addition of the Prima Finn Power Press Brake and Kuka Robot Cell will increase our capacity and reduce cost. We can achieve this by running larger parts with fewer people along with improved operator safety, reliability and consistent predictable product" said Matt Thul, Bowman's VP of Operations.
