Anticipating The Theory Of Lean 

Origins.  Decades before James P. Womack formalized the theory he called "lean manufacturing," Salvagnini had been aggressively putting those very same principles into practice in its unremitting drive to eliminate wasted time and wasted materials throughout the entire sheet metal fabrication process. 

Understanding the big Picture.  By maintaining its focus first on process and then on operations, Salvagnini is constantly helping its customers to reduce the length of time between receipt of an order and delivery of finished products.  Recognizing that 90-95% of the cost of fabricated products is consumed by non-manufacturing operations, Salvagnini has been unwavering in its drive to eliminate time wasting practices that siphon off value.  Salvagnini is achieving its goal by developing the industry's most advanced software, flexible automation, and intelligent material handling systems to complement what are already the most efficient and versatile punching, shearing, laser cutting and bending machines in the business.

Salvagnini Delivers.  The principles of single piece part flow, minimal setups, optimal inventory management, reduced WIP and JIT delivery are what define lean manufacturing.  And whether you're looking at component building blocks or a completely Automated Job Shop, no one does it better than Salvagnini.
