The general idea was to change the manufacturing to a "pull"
system by gathering the resources (people/machines) and arranging
them together
This customer runs twenty-year-old Harris presses. The trend in
the industry is to run lighter and lighter paper.
We were asked to inspect the roll and to reverse engineer the roll
in order to generate a detailed design.
Webex has the most sophisticated stress and deflection analysis
and heat transfer programs available.
Webex manufactures hundreds of Nip, Laminator and Calender rolls
each year.
Webex was able to design a roll than ran at speed, was lighter,
and cost less than the original roll.
Webex engineers worked with the customer to develop a diamond knurl
microgroove pattern.
Because the industry is always changing, we feel that ISO certification
is an integral component in our pursuit of customer satisfaction.
