Why not start with a new investment right away
When a requirement for higher performance arises in production, the logical consideration is: "Let's get a new machine." But such a move often means millions of dollars in costs and a long payback period. Sometimes you just need to look at your existing processes in more detail and see that much of the potential lies there.
That's why at SEMA Designing we carry out initial scan of production - a quick analysis that reveals the true savings potential and shows whether investment in new technology is really necessary.
Example from practice
Our customer approached us with a requirement for the development of a new machine. The aim was to increase production productivity.
But the initial scan showed a different path:
-
by modifying the production process,
-
better planning,
-
and more efficient work with intermediate stores
to achieve the required productivity gains without costly investment.
Result: the customer gets a higher production output, meets their expectations and saves significant money at the same time.
When it pays to consult experts
If you're considering investing in new technology, it's worth checking in advance whether the goal can be met in a different way - faster, cheaper and with less risk. The right combination of analysis, innovation and optimisation can deliver the same or better results than buying a new machine.
Conclusion
Before making the decision "We're ordering a new machine!", it's good to have an objective view from the outside. At SEMA Designing, we take a holistic view of production - from machines to processes to overall layout. This enables us to recommend a solution that really makes sense.
