| | | Agile Manufacturing in the Aerospace Industry | Agile manufacturing long has been joked a contradiction in terms, but no more. New data and analysis tools, combined with new manufacturing tools are allowing the factory floor to become more adaptive and efficient. But, this goes beyond lean manufacturing and remains uncharted territory for many aerospace producers. While aerospace has always brought in the most advanced manufacturing technologies, there is an opportunity to have the manufacturing system deliver enhanced productivity. Further, changes in the competitive environment and customer needs call for a different business model — one that delivers speed, innovation, and cost.
Hear industry experts discuss:
Productivity through digital operations and smart factory Role of software in manufacturing Innovating the design-manufacturing chain Borrowing from the auto industry Developing an agile business model across the organization and supply chain How manufacturers can move their operations up a notch Find out more and register here. | | |
