Selection of proper process and machine. This presentation will cover:
- Tooling Optimization

- Direct Labor
- Clamping and Fixturing
- Secondary Support Costs
- Floor Space/Most Efficient/Automation
- Secondary Capital Costs
- Part Quality
Selection of the best machine and process for the particular part/volume is more critical to reduce lifetime costs than the original capital cost of the equipment. This is particularly applicable if machine can be re-deployed to exceed the life of the part contract.
The educational and informative conferences run Sept. 8-11, 2014 in the West Building, Level 1. To register for this or any session, visit www.imts.com/education/imtsconference.html.
