Wisdom comes from experience, time spent deep into a job, watching the trends go in and out and gleaning lessons from working over the years.  So when it comes to designing a strategy to move your company forward, why not learn to lean on your work veterans for advice?

Consider who has run the equipment the longest, and consider including these workers as key people in your decision making process in terms of going forward with a new equipment purchase.  What would the veteran in your plant have to say about the noise vibration the machine currently puts out or the lost raw materials from the heating tank that are wasted and eating into the profit margin?  This person knows a lot about where the issues lie in your production cycle.

Sometimes the voice of experience can be found outside of your own walls.  Komax has developed deep knowledge and experience working with a variety of industries to tackle common mixing and heating issues, sometimes resulting in an innovative solution to an age-old problem.From working on paper pulping heating tanks to static mixers for food production companies, Komax is the voice of experience when it comes to slurry control, precise heating and uniform mixing.  Partnering with us brings valuable experience to the table.

The bottom line?  Sustainable manufacturing growth happens when there are robust processes derived from the experiences of your workforce.  Don’t get overly caught up in the latest tech craze.  Technology will always play a key role in moving forward; but so will the lessons of experience.  In some instances, experience may just be the most valuable asset of all!
