SUN EXPORTS , Faridabad is an 100% Export Oriented Unit engineering industry established in 1991. It regularly exports precision machined components to automotive companies in Germany. The company has a policy of continously improving the level of technology it uses. Vivek Satyawadi, one of the promoters is a qualified engineer. He is always looking for ways to reduce idle times and improve productivity. He trained his team of engineers on CAD/CAM for making quick and efficient programs. Sun Exports invested in Cadem's CAPSturn software about 4 years back. Having cleaned up the programming activity, he wanted to track the CNC machines to see where he could reduce idle times. Cadem's SHOPtrack with mPODs was his choice, after evaluating a couple of other systems that claimed to track machines.
Vivek Satyawadi , " SHOPtrack has helped me manage my machines better . My production grew by 15%. I have 5 machines and was planning to buy one more to take on extra orders. But before buying a new machines, I wanted to first see, that if we were using the existing machines to the maximum extent. I started traking my machines and found that we could squeeze out a lot more out of existing machines.I did not really require a new machine for now. SHOPtrack helped in this investigation."
I'm glad I bought SHOPtrack instead of new machine.I like making money and not just chips, he adds with a smile.
