Getting the ROI from your new laser system

Abstract

In order to successfully implement a new laser processing system in your manufacturing process the following are the main things to be kept in mind: 1. The traditional direct economic benefits of an improved process. 2. The future indirect benefits that are difficult to quantify before the new technology is implemented. 3. The proper installation and facilities as recommended by the system supplier and other users. 4. The absolute requirement to take the time to train people and change processes to utilize the new system. As they say, “Pay now or pay later.” In order to successfully implement a new laser processing system in your manufacturing process the following are the main things to be kept in mind: 1.
