Streamlined, value-added approach to high-precision manufacturing.
For almost three decades, Autocam Corporation has served as an industry leader in the implementation of lean manufacturing. In fact, it is a cornerstone of our global business strategy. Over and over, lean has proven its value to our customers. We believe it, along with continuous improvement, has been the key to our success.
We work diligently to eliminate non-value-added costs, such as work-in-process inventory and inspection. As a result, we have been able to reduce production downtime and dramatically shorten the time it takes to convert raw material into a finished product. Shorter lead times mean faster time-to-market, which translates into lower overall costs for our customers.
We also have the ability to do quick changeovers -- in many cases, within a matter of minutes. This enables us to maintain continuous flow, making our operations highly flexible and responsive to customer requirements. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, quality is actually built – not inspected -- into the manufacturing process by the use of such tools as APQP and FMEA.
