无人值守模式提升车间加工效率

Running Unattended at Night Lets Machine Shop Serve New Customers During Da

在眼镜生产领域打拼多年后,Jim Goerges先生对这个行业的未来有着深入见解,他的车间Precision Tool Technologies位于明尼苏达州,主要生产眼镜镜片所需的工装,两家主要客户的订单确保了车间能够在光学行业蓬勃发展和成长,但是,在10多年前,Jim Goerges先生就注意到了其中的缺点,如果某一天两家客户的订单同时发送到车间,以车间目前的加工能力是否能够应对?

Jim Goerges is in the eyeglasses business.He could see from a long way off what was coming.His shop,Precision Tool Technologies of Brainerd,Minnesota,makes tooling that is used in manufacturing eyeglass lenses.Serving this specialty has enabled the shop to thrive and grow off the ongoing business of two major customers that account for much of its optical-industry business.But more than a decade ago,Mr.Goerges recognized the vulnerability in this.That is,the possibility that these two large customers might one day come together.He saw how logical it would be for them to merge,leaving his shop significantly beholden to just one customer.To prepare for this,he decided that Precision Tool had to diversify.
