11:30 AM Successfully Scaling Up Production Through the Integration of Automation
As the market for medical devices and technology continues to expand, the ability to deliver maximum product output in minimum time is imperative. Increasing the inclusion of well designed automated processes has the capacity to improve operational efficiency and upscale production. In this session Steven will run you through the process of increasing automation at a Cochlear’s manufacturing facility:
- Determining points in the process where largest ROI will be gained from automation
- Integrating the ‘old’ with the ‘new’: successfully combining automated and non-automated processes
- Preparing the system to be responsive, flexible and capable of integrating other technologies in future
