Operator-centric production is typical for many industrial manufacturing enterprises. Whether it is the semi-automatic production of engineered materials such as flexible packaging and wire or team-based assembly of product variants, the effectiveness of the shop floor workforce is critical to the success of the organization.
Industrial manufacturing challenges require an adaptable approach to shop floor operations. The demand mix of modern manufacturing includes standard “catalog” items but increasingly also includes customer-specific variants of those items. This requires both the shop floor equipment and personnel to be responsive to dynamic changes and adjustments on the fly. This flexibility must be achieved while maintaining the highest product quality and a sensitivity to inventory and other costs.
