Plastic Extruder Auctions in Kokomo, IN
Kokomo is a major automotive manufacturing center: home to Chrysler's transmission manufacturing and a dense cluster of Tier 1 and Tier 2 automotive suppliers.
Automotive plastics in an automotive supplier region like Kokomo extends beyond injection molding: extrusion produces the continuous profile products the same supply chain relies on, sealing and weatherstripping stock, tubing, and wire and cable conduit. When an extrusion operation of that kind shuts down a line or upgrades tooling, single and twin screw extruders, often paired with matched dies for profile or tubing work, are what reach the auction block, usually alongside the downstream cooling and haul-off equipment that runs with them. Buyers sourcing Davis-Standard or Milacron extrusion equipment built for automotive profile and tubing production follow these sales closely, and KD Auctions puts that supply in front of its full 500,000+ industry contacts rather than a handful of regional processors.
