HIGH-MIX, LOW-VOLUME

A contract manufacturing environment where the high value products being assembled vary in application, lot size and production processes. Contract manufacturers and jobbers that are equipped for high-mix, low-volume production have the ability to change over product requirements and convert assembly lines in a matter of hours. They can easily add capacity to accommodate increased volume and rapid throughput cycles. However, high-mix, low-volume manufacturing creates numerous challenges because there are more areas to invite error. Lower quantities demand more frequent changes of your clamping system on your machine.
