CNC Automation for Heller machine tools
“Automation secures jobs since we can now respond significantly better to order fluctuations. At the moment, our robot cell runs at a capacity of 90 percent, producing 32 different components unmanned in 2 ghost shifts.”
Operations Manager at Allmatic Jakob Spannsysteme, a company with Heller and Fastems

Operations
Automation transforms daily operations, making them much more productive, efficient and stable. Automation helps in minimizing set-up times as the next batch can be be prepared while the previous is being machined. At the end of the day, the operational benefits are measurable in the five key production metrics mentioned in the pyramid above.
Financials
Improved financial results are of course driven by development in operations such as higher utilization of resources, more throughput, higher quality and more proactive production planning. The effect in short: the production achieves higher volumes and profits and operates with less money (less stocks and WIP).
Customers and people
Smarter operations are good both for the workforce and customers. They help fight the challenge of finding and keeping skilled labor and being able to deliver quality on time – while remaining profitable.
