Terex, production--Terex Moves Production Facilities

OKLAHOMA CITY - During a May 2010 Terex Mineral Processing Systems event held in Oklahoma City, Tom Riordan, President & COO of Terex Corporation, spoke to mineral processing dealer principals about transferring manufacturing of the Terex crushing equipment line the Terex Oklahoma City facility. Over the past 12 months, Terex has successfully moved production of the minerals processing and asphalt paving lines from its Cedar Rapids, Iowa plant to Oklahoma City. The event gave dealer principals the opportunity to see the first crushing equipment models produced in their new home. "We had a long heritage and remarkable team in Cedar Rapids, but the facility had too many challenges to overcome to continue manufacturing operations," said Riordan. "Oklahoma City is a key site for Terex, and the workforce has the unique expertise to build highly complex equipment such as the crushing line," he added.
