Boost Your Productivity With ATM's BuildAssist

5 Ways The BuildAssist Range Will Boost Your Productivity

Over the past couple of years the manufacturing industry has advanced dramatically, boosting the UK's economy at the same time.  However, technologies have to continuously evolve if your manufacturing company is to survive, this is where ATM's  BuildAssist range comes in. We construct these machines for the Automotive and Medical industries but they can be adapted for many different sectors, for example Aircraft Interiors. The brand name explains itself really, they assist the builders, making every job easy enough to make a massive difference in your productivity. Who has to choose between quality and quantity of your products when both are guaranteed? The following five points show how our  BuildAssist range will improve your business:

1. Our unique Control Systems

Employees can use this with ease as the instructions are on-screen and simple to grasp. With administrator login, our systems allow the creation of a detailed sequence of assembly operations to be followed. Not only this but we are currently developing an on-screen Training Video to assist in the part assembly every step of the way. The Control Systems are the same throughout the entire BuildAssist range, meaning employees only have to learn one programme to grasp the concept of many machines. 

2. Increased product satisfaction

Small, but significant, mistakes are easy to miss through human error, however, with our Vision Systems,  this is easily avoided. These systems check colour, part orientation, major and minor part defects and shape and size of individual part of assembled part. With a rapid decrease of inaccuracy, products are superior in quality and you will increase yield.

3. Decreased lead time

The quantity of products will not be compromised because there is far less room for human error because of our unique control system. The fact that there are standard designs throughout the range means that system design time is dramatically decreased. So through every step the lead time is reduced with better quality production. 

4. Quick change Plug & Play

It is easy for these machines to be re-configured to suit a different component if necessary by use of inter-changeable nests. The benefit for this is obvious, no need to buy countless machines for slight differences in parts. The best example of this is our Standard Final Assembly Stations  with various nesting options which simply bolt into place.

5. Safety

Safety is obviously a high priority in an industry involving automated machinery. All our BuildAssist  machines are tested to the highest degree with constant improvements insuring for the best security possible. An example of this is our Rotational Final Assembly Systems  which are probably the largest BuildAssist machines we manufacture. The disk brake ensures it's as safe as can be whilst moving from a vertical to a horizontal orientation or vice versa. Adapting the height to the user's needs is also crucial as a safety aspect but is not always achievable with regular machines as they either don't have this particular feature or it is too cumbersome. The power lift feature means that whilst adjusting the height, it is done in the most secure and smoothest way possible. 

So, as you can see, our BuildAssist  range will easily boost your company's productivity with the unique, key features explained above. Don't choose between quality or quantity, have both with ATM's newest BuildAssist range.
