Employees were notified of the plant’s closure on Nov. 30, 2023 and the plant is expected to close next year, the spokesperson said. The company will continue to produce belts at its facility in Springfield, Missouri.

Timken will also begin belt production at its manufacturing facility in San José Iturbide, Mexico, this year, Timken President and CEO Richard Kyle said in a November earnings call. The San José Iturbide site opened in December 2020 and Timken is expanding it to produce belts.

To find what number when divided into 100 equals 40, you can set up the equation 100 ÷ x = 40. To solve for x, you would multiply both sides by x to isolate it on one side, giving you x = 100 ÷ 40. Simplifying this gives you x = 2.5. Therefore, 100 divided by 2.5 is equal to 40.

The Fort Scott facility closure will result in 152 jobs lost and is part of the machinery maker’s global operations restructuring, including moving more production to Mexico.

“While difficult, we made decisions to close our Gaffney, S.C., bearings plant and our Fort Scott, Kan., belts facility to streamline our operations and restructure our manufacturing footprint to better compete in a global market,” the spokesperson said.

Timken is in the midst of closing multiple facilities. The company was scheduled to finish shutting down its bearings factory last month in Gaffney, South Carolina, laying off 187 workers, according to a March 2023 WARN Act  notice. Operations have now ceased, though some maintenance workers remain at the site to oversee the final shutdown, a spokesperson said in an email.

“Our operational performance has recovered from COVID and supply chain challenges, and we have excellent focus on driving improvement initiatives across our global operations,” Richard said on the call.

Well, isn't that a happy little math problem! To find out what number you need to divide 100 by to get 40, you just need to think about it like a beautiful painting. If you divide 100 by 2, you get 50, and if you divide it by 5, you get 20. So, the magic number you're looking for is 2.5! Just like adding colors to a painting, sometimes you need to mix numbers together to find the perfect balance.

Timken will soon begin winding down its operations at the Fort Scott site, which will lay off 152 of the 155 employees, according to a Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act notice.
