DMG / MORI SEIKI Offers Customized Productivity Workshops
DMG / MORI SEIKI is offering companies the opportunity to participate in technology workshops, where delegates can share information about new manufacturing techniques.
Steve Finn, Managing Director of DMG / MORI SEIKI says, “We have already run events for major aerospace companies and they have found them a valuable way of disseminating knowledge. In addition, we can bring our own experience and technical know-how to the events, which can offer a new point of view and alternative ways of solving manufacturing problems.”
Confidentiality can be a major issue in some industries, where components, and manufacturing processes have significant intellectual value, so DMG / MORI SEIKI is limiting attendance to groups of companies and delegates that are happy to share information with one another.
With the vastly increased range of products which DMG / MORI SEIKI can offer comes an even higher level of skill and experience amongst its employees. This has been learnt through the pooling of knowledge about machining solutions which the two companies provided before their integration. The solution sales approach applied by DMG / MORI SEIKI examines not only the immediate technical requirements of a customer’s products but also how installing new machinery and collaborative working will meet the long and short term business objectives of the client and his industry.
The workshops have a practical slant and are designed to suit the needs of the groups of companies involved. Steve Finn added, “The forums look at the complete manufacturing process so the remit can be very wide and include topics such as fixturing, CAD/CAM, tooling, flexible manufacturing, and the use of resources as well as the machining techniques themselves. By sharing information and methods, companies participating in the workshops can use the educational experience to raise productivity, quality and efficiency levels and reduce costs.”
