Technology Showcase: Case Studies, Part 2
For the many differences between moldmaking companies that I’ve observed, there are just as many similarities, and by that I mean challenges shared. You may find some solutions here.
An Okuma machine helped this Ohio moldmaker boost a segment of its business. Find out how, here.
Sometimes taking a different view of a problem can bring about a successful solution. This moldmaker's story can be found here.
The addition of laser engraving services has boosted this Ohio welding company’s business by about 10 percent. Get the story here.
Diagnostic device helps molders simply check hot runner cables to ensure connectivity. This case study appeared in our annual Mold Maintenance and Repair Supplement, here.
Data-driven manufacturing is becoming more and more prevalent in the moldmaking industry, but not all moldmakers have standards in place or the structure to maintain pertinent collected data after a mold is built and delivered. Learn what this moldmaker uses, here.
Well, MMT readers, it’s officially spring in North America, heralding a time of renewal, hope and more sun-filled days than not (we can dream). Playing off of this theme, I’m bringing another installment of the Technology Showcase focusing on case study articles MMT published during the latter half of 2016. (My first blog on products and companies using them can be accessed here.) It is my hope that you, dear readers, will gain renewed inspiration from fellow mold shops that have shared their challenges and the solutions that were found via their experiences with various products and services.
For the many differences between moldmaking companies that I’ve observed, there are just as many similarities, and by that I mean challenges shared. MMT case studies bring real-world insights to the table for addressing these challenges and they are worth your review. Please take some time to check these out—and contact me if you have a story to share about a product or process that impacted your company’s operations for the better. Potential customers are always on the lookout for suppliers that are creative, innovative and motivated, and telling your story will grab their attention!
