COMBAT LABOR CHALLENGES
with Automation Within Reach, the operator you can count on.
Do you experience any of these challenges?
Do you struggle to find good machine operators?
Finding skilled workers in today's labor market has become increasingly difficult. The worker shortage can result in your current operators being stretched too thin and unable to spend time on quality control and process optimization.
Are your batch sizes between 20-180 pieces?
It's often assumed that small batch sizes need to be manually loaded/unloaded. Depending on an operator to attend to your machine can adversely affect your spindle utilization.
Are the majority of your machined parts smaller than your head?
Parts that are small enough to let a machinist handle them can lead to the misconception that this is a good idea. Repetitive tasks, such as loading and unloading machines, can cause strain or injury and can keep your operators from performing other valuable tasks throughout the shop.
Do your machines sit idle during second or weekend shifts?
With a lack of eligible machinists comes a potential loss of production on second and weekend shifts. Less machine utilization significantly lengthens the ROI time on your investment.
