Many manufacturers of special transfer machines have tried and built some sort of FLEXIBLE MACHINE but very cleverly they took a step back AFTER SEEING THE BATH BLOOD OF THE DEVELOPMENT …

WHY?

Because today I can confirm that THEY WERE REALLY RIGHT!

Building a reliable and competitive FLEXIBLE MACHINE is a very different sport than building special machines dedicated to one piece or to a family of pieces.

My competitors understood it immediately, they quickly realized that the road would be very uphill and dangerous. Not me, I underestimated the thing and I was so stupid to continue on this very expensive and dangerous road, not realizing where I was going.

I HAVE RISEN TO MAKE ALL THOSE WHAT MY FATHER HAD BUILT SINCE 1958! 

I walked blindfolded risking to end up in the ravine, and in an unconscious way, at that time, I put my company at risk, arriving at a certain point also at the layoffs and solidarity contracts.

After years (in 2005 the wrong choice of flexible machines …) there is a positive side.

Today my wrong business choice has made sure that every day since 2005, by cause of meeting problems on problems and solving them at enormous costs, we have earned a position that TODAY IS GOLDEN!

Luckily in 2005 we did only 3 of them a year because with all the problems we had, 3 MULTICENTER generated so many problems that we did not have enough technical assistance to make the machines work.

If I had to redo everything from the beginning I think I would not do it again, too much effort, too much cost, too much of my health ruined by the overly stressful situations.

But since all this is part of the past, I realized that all the ugliness of the past is an asset, A VALUE.

In fact, the data speaks clearly!

TODAY WE HAVE TO PRODUCE 32 MULTICENTERS AND WE ARE NEAR 3 MULTICENTERS PER MONTH!!

Assembly area 2

Today I realized that after this bloodbath, even if at the time I cursed those choices and I often thought about throwing in the towel …

But today we are the most experienced manufacturer of FLEXIBLE MACHINES, and I am proud of the level achieved!

We are collecting the fruit of so much sweat and pain from the past, even if we are developing new ideas to make further technological leaps in the near future.

For these reasons today I am dominating the category “FLEXIBLE MACHINES BUILT IN SERIES” thanks to the “FLEXIBLE PRODUCTION” METHOD that I have devised which allows you to GET BACK TO MAKING MONEY!

This FLEXIBLE PRODUCTION method has two precise customer targets:

TRANSFER CUSTOMER: This first area is aimed at an audience of users of TRANSFER MACHINES disappointed by the ever smaller quantities in terms of lots, not in absolute terms. In practice, I notice more and more that the annual quantity of pieces to be produced is always the same or even increasing, but the end customer increasingly breaks the orders for avoiding stock and tends to order only the necessary.

Applying the FLEXIBLE PRODUCTION method, we aim to produce only the sold, without stocking, without stress because the MULTICENTER has been studied to do this WITH PRODUCTION CHANGES IN 15 MINUTES and, therefore, with more cash on the current account, because not producing in stock makes you more liquid.

In addition, you can take advantage of buying a machine built in series with very fast delivery.

This METHOD makes you very effective and fast in terms of delivery to your customers who, thanks to this, will be enamored by your service, so fast that they will be amazed!

To deepen this theme you can get the Book FLEXIBLE PRODUCTION that I have specifically written for this target of customers.

MACHINING CENTER CUSTOMER: The second area of customers who adopt the METHOD is totally opposite, that is, they are users of MACHINING CENTERS in battery. In this case, the MULTICENTER compared to 3 work centers gives its best in terms of COST / PIECE because, thanks to the less occupied area, the half-energy, the use of less staff (or less automation), the cutting of fixture costs, turns out to be more competitive.

A MULTICENTER is much more competitive than a battery of machining centers and puts you in a position to get the best COST / PIECE!

To deepen this theme you can get the book:

“MACHINING CENTERS: TOO MUCH FLEXIBILITY KILLS YOUR PRODUCTIVITY!”

In this second book you will find all the advantages of using this PRODUCTIVE METHOD compared to the common MACHINING CENTERS.

Whether you are a TRANSFER machine user

and you want to become more flexible or quick to

respond to the management of small/ medium lots

 

Or that you are

 

a user of MACHINING CENTERS in battery

and you want to get the best COST / PIECE,

 

PROCURE the book that suits you best

and learn how to change your business model to become more effective!
