Simple Solutions That Work! Issue 15

We are pleased to be presenting our 15th issue of Simple Solutions That Work! This is our Case Study issue, one of our most popular topics because—everyone wants to know “how” it was done. This issue covers ‘how it came to fruition and what the results were’. Many of our participants worked very hard to get approvals to release how their engineering solutions increased production or decreased labor through automation, and then the all-important – how quality was enhanced. Our authors are deploying many types of advanced manufacturing solutions on the foundry floor that will have something for everyone; from robotic automation, RFID technology, sensor technologies and more. Today’s economic environment has hit us all hard. As we all get through this period of a weak supply chain and labor force, it is clear that automating to increase productivity also brings along a better, more trained employee that is more likely to stay and grow as you do. We hope you enjoy reading how other companies are advancing the field of metalcasting. I would like to thank all of our contributors in this issue for their articles detailing advanced metalcasting solutions that they are currently deploying on the foundry floor. As always, thank you for reading our 15th issue of Simple Solutions That Work! Jack Palmer President, Palmer Manufacturing & Supply, Inc. jack@ palmer mfg.com WELCOME TO OUR 15TH ISSUE!
