Stud welder coming to Mississippi

The stud-welding company Image Industries will invest $3M to relocate cold forming manufacturing operations from Illinois to Clarksdale, Miss., and expects to create 50 jobs over the next four years. The Mississippi operation will be at the former Metso facility in Clarksdale. There, the cold forming process will enable the company to economically produce hundreds of custom parts per minute, such as threaded weld studs, shear connectors and concrete anchors, hydraulic weld ports and cable management studs, even at relatively low volumes. The company expects to begin operations this coming fall.

Image also offers a wide range of fasteners to meet the shipbuilding industry’s stud welding needs.
