Civil and industrial furniture
The customer
Leading international manufacturer of metal doors for residential and industrial use.
Initial situation
Prior to Leas's help, production was entirely manual, with work areas dedicated to various operations of welding and assembling of the metal frames. The production process was carried out on 2 product lines employing 20 people on a total area of 600 square meters.
Customer needs

Automation and the new process logistics system, have enabled a 30 percent footprint reduction.
The reclaimed space, together with the new elevated buffering system, helped significantly increase the capacity of the storage areas.
Daily production increased from 400 to 1,500 frames per day, working the same number of hours
Personnel costs are REDUCED BY 80%
“
When the tolerances we need to meet are very tight, as was the case in this project, the
risk is to make automation too complex, and consequently expensive, in order to meet those requirements. But at the same time, the risks that are involved will increase. Being able to put together and simplify things is the best road to take, and it’s often the most difficult to find, but also the only one that leads to success.
