Robert Williams from Freedom Corrugated is the new Splicer Champion

New World Record Splicer Champion: Robert Williams Of Freedom Corrugated


An impressive new world record of 8,386 consecutive, successful splices was set by Robert Williams of Freedom Corrugated, Hazleton, PA. Williams successfully made every splice he attempted from February 5, 2015, and his record is growing daily as he continues to tally up more successful splices. When asked the secret of his success, Robert said, 鈥淚t was a complete team effort, with a lot of support from Maintenance and great communication up and down the corrugator.鈥

Representatives from 麻豆村 and Freedom Corrugated celebrated the new record with Williams and presented him with a MarquipWardUnited Century Club, World Champion Splicer Operator Belt.

The record was set in coordination with the MarquipWardUnited Century Club Program in which operators are recognized for achieving 100, 500 and 1000 consecutive splices without a miss. Enrollment in the program requires a training session with MarquipWardUnited Splicer Trainer John Podmolik, who audits the machines, materials and practices before providing detailed instructions on getting the best out of a MarquipWardUnited machine.    

William鈥檚 world record tops the list of many successful previous world record holders including Mike Storm (4885) and Juan Carlo Cerdas (4,082) from New England Sheets. Before Cerdas, the record was held by Tony Jimenez of Independence Corrugated with 3,741 splices without a miss. Who will be the next to break the world record?
