Roll-Kraft Names Mike Samplak as Plant Manager

Roll-Kraft is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Mike Samplak to the position of Plant Manager at its headquarters facility in Mentor, OH. Samplak has been with Roll-Kraft for 17 years. He started with the company as a machine operator. Over the years, he has worked in nearly every department of the plant, allowing him to understand what each operator needs to perform their job to the highest standards. He also learned the best processes followed by Roll-Kraft, to produce and provide high quality tooling to the tube & pipe and roll forming industry.

As plant manager, Samplak will now apply this knowledge to every area of the plant and look for further improvements, as he assumes his new responsibilities. His duties will include working with the Roll-Kraft engineers to identify and confirm what are often very precise size tolerances in design, working with purchasing of parts and materials for customer orders, assigning and scheduling production for Roll-Kraft’s CNC machines, in order to meet challenging customer needs, and supervising the shipping department, to ensure products are getting out the door to meet the company’s on-time delivery goals.

Customers often choose to have their sets of tooling tested at Roll-Kraft. Samplak will coordinate the production of roll tooling with the tryout team, in order to allow the smooth transition into tryout.
