Using industry metrics we compare your aluminum extrusion plant with benchmarks and "like" equipment to find out where your operation is in relation to benchmark data from other aluminum extrusion companies in New Hampshire and the rest of the country. Then we develop a plan of changes which can lead to incremental performance increases in the aluminum extrusion process for your New Hampshire company.
This Benchmark Data chart assumes the aluminum extrusion presses at your New Hampshire facility are older, and were installed before 2006:

The Aluminum Extrusion Process Analysis service we provide for our New Hampshire clients begins with a process audit and then development of a plan going forward based on the audit results. The audit will be a detailed analysis and establishment of baseline metrics based on observations and meeting with team members at your New Hampshire aluminum extrusion facility.
Data Collection Documentation
For aluminum extrusion dies at your New Hampshire company that need repair, the data and feedback is sent back to suppliers. Working together, the actual results and repairs are documented. For clarity, pictures of noses and samples, and actual repairs, must be saved on the server. All repairs must include electronic die design, pictures of noses, repairs, and front ends, and are collected in a specific "check sheet" or procedure which is used to document performance and repairs. By tracking this information and sending it back to the supplier, subsequent copies of aluminum extrusion dies used at your New Hampshire aluminum extrusion company will perform at a higher level.
The difference between a good aluminum extrusion die design and a great die design are small details. Training employees at your New Hampshire aluminum extrusion company to do a periodic die design review with suppliers based on the family of parts is critical.
