Modern manufacturers succeed when they balance the types of jobs they accept with the capabilities they offer, and maximize the value of both their equipment and their personnel. Shops that fail to optimize their capabilities and remove inefficiencies from their processes may be unable to produce at their real capacity and meet expected quality standards. To improve efficiency and reach their production potential, shops must discover ways to meet four main challenges, especially as highmix, low-volume (HMLV) production gradually replaces mass-quantity output in multiple industrial environments.

The 1980s saw the Western World’s academics and manufacturers cast their eyes eastward to the miracle of Japanese manufacturing. Specifically, its low cost, high quality, and low stock. As a result, Japanese products were successfully flooding the Western World’s market and were seen as “World Class”.

Instantly appears in many people’s minds is of a production plant run entirely by robots. But robotics is only part of the overall technology stack that will enable today’s factories meet the demands of tomorrow’s markets. In just a few decades, industrial manufacturing has changed dramatically in the continuous effort to keep pace with ever increasing market demands. Basically, this transition has occurred in three distinct phases, each with its own pathway to success.

Traceability, the ability to identify and trace the product, process, operator, context, and detailed quality and component supplier and lot information for every item that moved through manufacturing, is a must-have for manufacturing success. A robust traceability framework that envelopes the total process, product, and material traceability, is a critical component for manufacturers facing stringent regulations while seeking to reduce the overall cost of compliance.
