Competitive Manufacturing Demands New HI-RES Systems in the Plant

No one wants to be forced to recall products once they are out in the field. Yet, every week, the consumer saftey agencies in countries around the world post those recalls. A recall can have a negative impact on the short-term financial health of the company. The damage to brand reputation and customer negotiating position often weakens future results as well.

Abstract

Many of these problems are the result of problems in the manufacturing process, whether because personnel are not clear on their tasks or because operations are running out of specification without the operations team knowing it until too late.

Companies must create error-proof production processes to avoid problems. A major challenge for most manufacturers is ensuring every employee follows those processes precisely, every time. This is challenging not because employees are not skilled, but because of the skyrocketing complexities of most production processes.
