CONSUMER PRODUCTS FUNCTIONAL TESTING MEDICALTHE WORLD’S FASTEST3D PRINTERS

3D printing is the world’s fastest process of rapid prototyping - five to ten times faster than other solutions. That means that PMI can output models in hours, not days. And unlike other 3D printing soultions, we can build multiple models at the same time, dramatically increasing throughput. PMI’s high-speed solutions provide a competitive advantage for a range of applications, from demanding commercial environments supporting entire engineering departments, to detailed modelling for scaled displays.

COLOR PRODUCES DRAMATIC RESULTS

Nothing communicates better than color 3D models and product prototypes - and PMI makes 3D color printing accessible and available to everyone. Color dramatically communicates engineering product designs, vividly portrays architectural designs,and brings animated characters to life. You can add highlights to models with annotations like part numbers, design comments, and logos to better evaluate product designs. And with PMI’s high-definition 3D printing capabilities, you can producemodels having complex geometriesand small, detailed features.

AFFORDABLE FOR ALL ENVIRONMENTS

From materials to operational costs, PMI delivers the lowest cost per printed model. PMI solutions use reliable and affordable inkjet technology, resulting in a materials usage cost that is a fraction of the cost of other rapid prototyping technologies. And PMI 3D printers recycle all unused materials, so you pay only for the actual materials used to produce a part.

“With the 3D printer, we can have a discussion in the morning, make a suggestion, break for lunch and see the results in the afternoon. No other tool can do this.”

Visual Factory

Visual Factory is a system that improvesproduction efficiency, decreases safety incidentrates, increases quality standards, and supportsemployee moral.

The basis of a visual factory is the union ofinformation and communication. It thrustsinformation regarding safety procedures anddangers, productivity, quality assessments, andteam spirit.

As QualPro’s 12 step process improvementtechniques indicates, the first action needed toimprove a process is to "create the environment".For this reason, Visual Factory Managementbegins with labeling and making signs to clearlyidentify where things are and where they aresupposed to be. This will help employees aligntheir efforts with the goals of the organization inorder to maximize the effect of their efforts.

How much can myorganization save?SafetyOSHA reports that 80% of all incidents claimed are dueto unsafe acts while 20% are due to unsafe conditions.

The average safety incident costs employers $86,000which includes compensation, benefits, damage tocapital assets, lost productivity , legal expenses, andworkers comp insurance rate increase.

Therefore, visual communication acts as reminders foremployees to have safer behavior and will thus attack80% of incidents.

More important than money is life. Keeping employeessafe is the #1 priority, and any investment in ensuringsafety is a good one.

Go visual. If we had it to do over again, we would have acceleratedthe implementation of our 7S visual factory management system. Thissystem has proven invaluable in establishing order within the facilityand providing the visual ability to reconcile reality against thetheoretical world of the MRP system. As this plant goes forward, thisvisual world will continue to be enhanced as a tool to simplify themanagement of the overall operation. -- Kautex -- A Textron Co.,Lavonia, Ga.

ManufacturingVisual factory systems evolved asthe natural progression ofmaking the concepts of SixSigma, QualPro, and ProblemSolving Analysis a company-wide, unified project. Bydisplaying trend charts,production data, defect rates,and specific goals throughout afacility, companies have found amore aligned environment whereevery employee is focused onthe corporation’s goals. Thishas given significant productionoutput gains. By using a visualfactory, one manufacturingfacility has seen an efficiency improvement from 78%to 92% in an eleven month span, defect rate dropsfrom 4.3% to 2.4% in 8 months time, and mean timebetween stops rise from 2.7 hours to 6.2 hours.

Make problems easily visible.We use visual managementtechniques extensively because theysurface problems quickly andallow anyone to know how thingsare going at all times. We use 5Stechniques because they reduceopportunities for various types ofwaste (defects, materialhandling, motion) and create amore pleasing environment forour associates. -- General CableCorp. - Automotive Products,Altoona, Pa.
