Acutech LLC has recently started a fabrication project working for the Kalispell
Regional Medical Center remodel. Kalispell Regional Medical Center (KRMC) began a renovation in January of 2011, looking
to the future of medical technology and science for the Flathead Valley. KRMC wanted to keep up with advances in
technology and the rapidly growing population of Kalispell and the surrounding
area. Not only did they undertake a
remodeling project on the existing hospital, they also added on several wings
to expand capabilities. Part of this
addition includes a patient tower with up-to-date surgical operating suites,
additional office space, and a shelled space to eventually be turned into expanded
emergency services area. Overall, with
the new additions the hospital is well over 300,000 square feet.
Acutech
was excited to be a part of the new project, working with hospital planning
teams to fabricate stainless steel surgery tables and operating room pass through cabinets for state-of-the-art operating rooms.
Acutech
is located in Columbia Falls, Montana, just west of Glacier National Park,
which is only a 30 minute drive from KRMC.
This project is one of many large scale productions that Acutech has
been a part of- the premiere facilities offer water jet cutting, laser cutting,
CNC plasma cutting, a CNC machine shop and a full service metal fabrication
shop. It is a one stop shop, taking
projects from the design stage through precision cutting, machining, and fabrication. Acutech offers a solution as part of a supply
chain for many manufacturing companies across a wide spectrum of industries-
producing parts for firearm manufacturing, aerospace, UAV, structural steel
components, car racing teams, oil and gas production, oil field rig mats, alternative
energy-generating plants, mil spec hardware, and a numerous amount of other
professions. KRMC team members were able
to be a part of the entire process- from designing to fit their unique
specifications, to approving the metal finish.
Even though it was a large scale metal fabrication and precision CNC
cutting production, the hospital was able to see every part of the process and
participate actively in it.
