Over 30 Years Of Continuous Improvement

Gaining A Competitive Edge.  The goal of lean manufacturing is to create a competitive advantage by reducing manufacturing costs through the elimination of waste in the production process.  Salvagnini's historic concentration on improving the entire process of sheet metal fabrication has always employed the very same strategy, which is why Salvagnini is ideally positioned to provide direction and counsel to those companies who want to adopt the practices of lean manufacturing.

 

The Industry Model.   ASR systems keep parts and material inventory at optimum levels, while proprietary programming eliminates queuing and delivers material where it's needed, when it's needed.  Work in process is held to a minimum.  All design and part programming is conducted off-line so that production can continue unabated.  Individual machines and manufacturing cells are loaded and unloaded robotically and all part manipulation is automatic, creating a completely unmanned workplace.  The result of Salvagnini technology is an unprecedented ability to produce an unlimited variety of products in small job lots, available for just in time delivery, without wasted time.  The very definition of lean manufacturing.

 

The Epitome Of Lean.  Because Salvagnini has always looked to the future for inspiration, all Salvagnini sub-systems are both modular and scalable.  That means job shops and large fabricators alike can grow an AJS one machine, one system, at a time as needs and resources permit.  It means they can cut waste one machine, one system, at a time to achieve lean manufacturing.
