| Résumé : |
"Added value” is not just an overused buzzword in today’s business and manufacturing environment. It can actually be the key driver in profitability when incorporating adhesives into a manufacturing process. When done right, adding adhesives to a process can provide much more value than the traditional advantages of better quality, improved aesthetics, expanded design capabilities or improved performance. Adhesives can also reduce labor and floor space requirements while improving throughput.
The changeover to using adhesives as an alternative to other joining methods (e.g., mechanical fasteners, welds, rivets or tapes) can be a low-risk process—if you work with an adhesives supplier that offers a strong support system. Support can come in many forms, but one of the most functional methods is the concept of systems engineering.
In broad terms, systems engineering is a study of the methods by which all system elements are designed, organized, and related to optimize a specific function based on prioritized goals and needs. A successful systems engineer will separate the functional requirements of an application from the manufacturer’s overall needs and goals, and work toward implementing a system that not only meets these functional requirements but maximizes the value to the manufacturer by keeping these pre-defined goals as the focus of the overall system design.
A systems engineer’s knowledge can reduce risk, ensure the conversion to adhesives is done right the first time and address problems before they happen. They can help with equipment selection and setup, design assistance, workflow, and personnel training. |
