Analyzing the Metal Fabricating Value Chain (Part 2)

In Part 2 of our multi-part blog series on analyzing the metal fabricating value chain, we will analyze the flow of the raw material. More specifically, how efficiently is material being presented to the laser cutting system and how efficient is the unloading, sorting, and stacking of the finished cut parts.

Analyzing the Metal Fabricating Value Chain (Part 3)

In continuation of our multi-part series on analyzing the value chain, we now look at manual CNC press brake bending operations. CNC bending operations continue to be a mostly manually intensive task for the majority of fabrication shops, although advancements in technology have reduced the overall setup time associated with press brake operations.
