Assembly machine from Haeger triples productivity

In this case, you can read about how we, with data from the customer TRECO A/S, demonstrated a good business case for a semi-automatic assembly machine by calculating the payback period on the investment; also called an ROI calculation (return of investment).

The customer in this case is the metal company TRECO A/S, which delivers customer-specific total solutions within sheet and tube processing. The introduction of the assembly machine in production is estimated to be able to triple productivity and helps the metal company meet an increasing demand for their products.

The challenge: Manual and inflexible workflows

TRECO A/S delivers many diverse production concepts that provide unique solutions for their customers. One of their areas of expertise is the assembly of, for example, PEM® fasteners, which Hans Buch also supplies.

PEM® fasteners come in many sizes and specifications, and when several different elements need to be processed in the same metal piece, manual and inflexible workflows arise, which can be exhausting and time-consuming. But as is well known, it costs to invest in development and thus to streamline and optimize.

The solution: Semi-automatic machine with built-in quality and safety systems

TRECO A/S received technical advice from Hans Buch, and with TRECO’s data, an ROI was calculated on an assembly machine, which turned out to be an economically viable business case with a short payback period.

The positive prospects piqued TRECO’s interest, and the metal company therefore received the Haeger 824™ Window Touch® assembly machine from Hans Buch, which has built-in quality and safety systems for the benefit of TRECO’s employees.

The Haeger machine can also handle up to four different items, ensuring that the production flow can continue without having to change the input between each assembly element.

The result: Future-proofing with consistent high quality

It is a focus area for TRECO A/S to stay ahead of current trends, and with the assembly machine from Haeger, the metal company has future-proofed production with increased automation for the benefit of their employees, who have reduced time-consuming and exhausting manual workflows.

The assembly machine also ensures consistent and high quality in TRECO’s deliveries, which are produced more efficiently. This ensures that TRECO always delivers what both they and their customers expect to receive and within a shorter timeframe than before.
