SAVINGS

Ergonomic benefits and process efficiencies are worthwhile objectives, but it's hard to justify capital dollars on systems that don't offer a tangible return on investment.

Well, say hello to EFC Automation, the fully automated plastic fastener delivery and application system. EFC Automation not only delivers impressive ergonomic and efficiency advantages, but also provides measurable costs savings.

MTM Associates for Standards and Research, an internationally recognized non-profit authority on processing timelines, has determined that is takes 7.50/100th of a minute to manually pick, place and push a standard plastic fastener. MTM's data is based on the individual motions that comprise the entire operation, using established and verified times. As a result, stopwatch subjectivity is eliminated.

EFC Automation performs these same activities in 3.13/100th of a minute which, assuming $60 per hour production costs, translates into a direct savings of 4.4 cents for every fastener applied!

In addition to these direct savings, EFC Automation also provides additional savings in the form of decreased fastener waste (typically 10%), improved quality control and enhanced ability to transfer labor into other cost centers.

As a result, the payback time for EFC Automation
can be measured in weeks and months....not years.
