Solar Atmospheres of Michigan, formerly Vac-Met, has recently purchased 18,000 square feet of plant space on four-plus acres in Chesterfield, Michigan. The new building is 20 miles northeast of the two existing Vac-Met facilities, which are in Warren and Fraser, Michigan.
“We are working feverishly in 2023 to prepare and equip this new facility to make it our fifth state-of-the-art vacuum heat treating and brazing facility in the United States,” said Bob Hill, president of Solar Atmospheres of Michigan Inc. “Once all of the electrical, water cooling, and specialty gas utilities are installed, we will strategically relocate the nine existing vacuum furnaces to their new home. Additionally, two new vacuum furnaces were purchased from Solar Manufacturing.
“This investment of over $5 million dollars gives Solar Atmospheres of Michigan the space to locate our valuable employees and equipment under one roof while continuing to grow the Michigan vacuum thermal processing needs.”
