- There are many ways in which the Focussed Manufacturing Review can be used. Examples of how MAS clients have used it in the past include:
- Examining the potential to reduce waste and energy costs
- Identifying what is needed to allow existing thread rolling machines to roll tougher and harder alloys
- Identifying the material components and specifications of a dual layer foam/fabric compound skin composite
- Assessing the potential for diverting the wood waste produced during manufacture to power a heat/power installation
- Evaluating the refrigeration distribution system with a view to reducing losses and improving system efficiency
- Identifying if it is feasible to measure the thickness of the anodised layer on a component.
- Assessing the feasibility of punching square holes in polycarbonate mouldings.
