EXEL North America, the worldwide leader in automated finishing systems and liquid extrusion equipment, is a full member of Save Your Factory. EXEL joins fifteen other organizations with this new initiative that has the express aim to prevent offshoring by encouraging manufacturers to "fully and objectively analyze the advantages of technology, lean manufacturing and quality-enhancing techniques, process improvements, robotic automation, and the total costs of off-shore manufacturing before deciding whether to source overseas."
Save Your Factory urges North American manufacturing companies to recognize automation and robotics as a more cost effective and profitable alternative to moving manufacturing facilities offshore. The benefits of low cost labor are often outweighed by costs in shipping, importing raw materials, longer turnaround time, lower quality, and product counterfeiting. Alternatively, robotic automation coupled with lean manufacturing principles, can increase productivity, reduce cost per piece, and cut lead time, all while maintaining or improving the production line flexibility to efficiently respond to market changes or add new manufactured products.
With over 130 years of experience, EXEL Industrial offers unique insight on how automated systems can help North American manufacturing industries. EXEL has a product range that includes liquid paint application, powder application, liquid extrusion, fluid delivery equipment and plural component systems. EXEL Industrial's goal is helping make manufacturers more competitive. By encouraging the automated systems and the implementation of new technologies in their client's production line, EXEL Industrial continues to exceed this goal.
