哈蒂斯堡,MS-Kohler Power正在进行重大的资本扩张,在其制造基地组装更多的家用备用发电机产品。该公司自1998年以来一直在哈蒂斯堡存在,在那里它生产各种应用的风冷发动机,包括科勒家用备用发电机。

“This expansion allows us to get closer to our customers and responding with quicker delivery,” says Kyle Brandemuhl, general manager of residential and power products at Kohler, adding that a high concentration of Kohler’s home generator business are customers in the southeast and gulf coast. “Over these last couple years, we have seen demand for residential products skyrocket due to a number of factors, including a record hurricane season in 2020, the Texas winter storms, increasing wild fires in the western U.S., along with the pandemic sending a high number of people home for work and school. An increasing number of consumers are speaking with their wallets. Prolonged power outages are no longer acceptable due to severe weather events and an aging power grid.”

科勒电力集团总裁布莱恩•梅尔卡(Brian Melka)表示:“通过此次扩建,我们目前的家用备用发电机产能将增加两倍以上,并进一步利用我们世界级的发动机制造设施。过去两年,我们的生产设施增加了一倍多。”“我们致力于支持我们宝贵的经销商网络,并让我们所服务的终端客户高兴。”

随着公司已经在萨克威勒和茂矽,WI目前生产基地已经大幅提高产量,科勒希望哈蒂斯堡在第三季度网络来更好地匹配扣球需求,减少交货时间与创新的电源解决方案。

“飓风季节开始6月1日,是一个很好的提醒,当电源中断,我们的生活显著破坏;它是必不可少的,” Brandemuhl说。“自动家里备用发电机是针对停电你最好的防御,以帮助确保安全和安心。”

3月初,科勒电力公司(Kohler Power)对其位于摩泽尔(Mosel)的现有制造工厂进行了15.5万平方英尺的扩建。该项目将包括一个2000千瓦以上大型发电机的最先进的生产和测试空间,以及增加的仓储,以及一个世界级的客户体验中心。
