Embrace Automation for Immediate Returns: Why Your Manufacturing Business Can’t Wait
In the world of manufacturing, the battle for success is not just about who can produce the most competitive product at the lowest price. The true challenge lies within managing the most unpredictable element of any business – the workforce. At PITCO Engineering, we understand that for businesses generating $15 million or more in revenue, the stakes are higher, and the workforce challenges are even more daunting.
The Human Element: A Variable in Constant Flux
From trained staff members lured away by slightly higher wages at the plant next door to unexpected absences due to personal time off or illness, the variables are endless. The result? Inconsistent quality, varying skill levels, and unpredictable work speeds. These “people problems” create a maze of hurdles for business owners, making effective planning and consistent output seem like a distant dream.
Enter Automation: The Game-Changer
Imagine a world where your operations run smoothly, without the fear of sudden staff shortages or dips in quality. Automation equipment from PITCO Engineering brings this vision to life. Our solutions don’t call in sick, don’t suffer from productivity lapses due to personal issues, and certainly don’t leave for a competitor over minor wage differences. In short, automation provides a level of reliability and consistency that human labor simply cannot match.
But what truly sets PITCO Engineering apart are the specialized applications we focus on to tailor automation to your specific needs. Whether it’s bin picking, packing applications, machine tending, palletizing and depalletizing, box erecting, sorting, assembly, welding, gluing, labeling, or even trailer unloading, our automation solutions are designed to address your most pressing operational challenges. Each application is a testament to our commitment to not just meet, but exceed the unique demands of modern manufacturing environments.
DAY ONE ROI: More Than Just a Promise
Transitioning to automation isn’t just about future-proofing your operations; it’s about seeing immediate financial benefits. With the average cost of employing a general labor staffer ranging between $24 to $30 per hour (including overhead, taxes, and healthcare), the savings start accumulating fast. By automating a single 40-hour shift in any of these applications, businesses can save approximately $1,000 per month. When you consider the added benefit of minimizing downtime due to the aforementioned “people problems,” the financial rationale becomes undeniable. We call this the DAY ONE ROI.
