Vector Windows Accelerates FlexScreen Manufacturing

In an exciting development for the window manufacturing industry, Vector Windows has announced a significant upgrade to its FlexScreen production capabilities. The company has made a strategic investment in an advanced high-speed FS-HS production line, designed to enhance manufacturing efficiency and meet the increasing demand for its innovative window screens.

The Transition to High-Speed Manufacturing

Less than a year after the successful launch of its in-house production utilizing the FS600 model, Vector Windows recognized the need for a more efficient manufacturing solution. The newly introduced FS-HS line will enable Vector to produce a fully completed FlexScreen every 13 seconds. This impressive capability not only maximizes production capacity but also ensures the consistency and quality that customers expect from Vector’s products.

Joe Altieri, the inventor and founder of FlexScreen, commented, "Vector's decision to upgrade so quickly emphasizes the strength of our partnership and highlights the value that FlexScreen brings to a window manufacturer. They experienced firsthand how efficiently FlexScreen could integrate into their operation, making the transition to the FS-HS line truly remarkable."

Vector Windows has made FlexScreen a standard feature across its diverse window product lineup. The company is committed to providing customers with a flexible and low-profile screen solution that is not only easy to install but also offers a clear and attractive view. With the new high-speed production line, Vector aims to maintain this commitment while keeping pace with the growing market demand.

Commitment to Quality and Growth

Mike Brown, Co-Owner and Vice President of Operations and Supply Chain at Vector Windows, expressed his confidence in the strategic direction of the company. "Our experience with the FS600 confirmed that FlexScreen was the right product and the right manufacturing investment for Vector. The FS-HS line aligns with our goals to enhance speed, capacity, and operational efficiency, ensuring we can support future growth while continuing to deliver quality products and customer service. Producing a FlexScreen every 13 seconds marks a significant advancement for our operations."

The FS-HS line was developed in collaboration with Erdman Automation, known for its innovative manufacturing solutions. This system brings cutting-edge automation and high-volume efficiency to the production process, establishing a solid foundation for the future of window-screen manufacturing. Altieri remarked, "Vector isn’t just adding equipment; they are investing in the future of window-screen manufacturing, and we take pride in being part of this journey."
