Transcript of 7 Signs Your Business is Ready for Automation
Think the automotive industry is the only one reaping the rewards of industrial automation?
Think again
More small businesses are investing in automation as it becomes more accessible and affordable
Could your company benefit from switching to an automated system?
Your company can’t fulfill all the orders it receives...
or an important piece of equipment needs frequent repairs
A REAL LIFE EXAMPLE:
Mennie’s Machine Company Inc. Won a major contract to manufacture automotive drive shaft components for trucks and SUVs
Labor costs in an industrial environment come with high liability and are driven up by high turnover rates and training
A REAL LIFE EXAMPLE:
Con-Met a Portland, Oregon based company
Improved the safety conditions for workers by using flexible servo-robots...
Allowing companies to take on larger contracts and enabling them to deliver quality products in greater quantities without driving up the price
A REAL LIFE EXAMPLE:
Marlin Steel Manufactured wire baskets for bagel stores before China flooded the market with cheaper products
Using automation, they were able to compete with the cheaper products without sacrificing any of their employees
In fact, one employee who was earning $8 an hour acquired new skills and is now earning an annual salary of $60,000
A REAL LIFE EXAMPLE:
Factory Five Racing Massachusetts
Specializing in Roadster Replicas, this company took 7.5 hours to trim 4 sets of doors, hoods and trunks
