ArtiCast Jackson will establish a Tennessee presence by moving into the facility formerly occupied by Pace Industries in Jackson. The company will invest $10.3 million and create 100 jobs at the new facility to meet increasing demands from the aerospace, drone, defense, humanoid robotics, automotive, aftermarket, commercial truck, industrial and agricultural industries. The company’s high-pressure die casting equipment includes machines with capacity up to 1,800 tons, strengthening its ability to support a broad range of component sizes, production requirements and customer programs.
