INDUSTRY SAFETY
As EHS affects more of the Industry Work Force, LanKorra has focused on the cost of Health and Safety injuries related to an employee’s continuous and repetitive motion with loading SMC into the press as well as unloading and deflashing molded parts. This area has long been neglected by the Automation world. However, with the advancement in today’s technology there have been significant improvements with Automation.
LanKorra has partnered with several automation companies who have successfully executed SMC Charge Cutting and Stacking Automation and Automated Part Removal and Deflashing with Stacking . These are highly technical automation process that eliminate repetitive injuries to hands and arms, worker absenteeism, part quality variation and down time. Over the last several years we have worked with customers to purchase and install both front and rear automation systems successfully.
Using a Value-Added Calculation, the improvement in production and capacity can reduce the need to purchase additional presses and hire additional labor making automation a more attractive option.
