Steel for Success: Episode #7

Our expert explains the benefits of outsourcing your first operation blanks… and of working with Worthington. Part 2 of 3 in a series.

Posted: September 2023

Featuring: Jeff Varner, Blanking Product Manager and Mackenzie Lorance, Host, Worthington Steel

Learn how outsourcing blanks helps increase operational efficiency.

Outsourcing your blanking is about driving operational efficiency, and mitigating risk. You should outsource your blanks if you want to:

• Limit your freight cost to steel that goes into making parts, not scrap.

• Have certainty about the number of usable blanks in inventory.

• Stop guessing how many usable blanks you will get out of a steel coil.

• Get more blanks from every coil without having to purchase a three-out bed press that is oversized for the rest of your operations.

• Would like to reclaim the valuable floor space your blanking presses consume for your primary value-add production lines.

Discover how Worthington is a One-Stop-Shop for the blanking customers, and why that matters to your business.

From designing and manufacturing your die, to pickling, slitting, and blanking under one roof – we’ve got you covered.
