Cimatron's Sam Golan Interviewed About the State of Tooling and Manufacturing
Interview on The Better Process Podcast is available on the Internet.
Novi, MI (PRWEB) May 31, 2007 -- Sam Golan, CEO and President of Cimatron Technologies Inc., was interviewed earlier this month on the state of the tooling and manufacturing industry. The interview is now accessible as a podcast at http://www.podcasternews.com/programs/87/better-process-podcast/4071/.
Talking with Ken Rayment, host of The Better Process Podcast, Golan shared his views on the challenges faced by North American tooling and manufacturing shops and how these challenges can be overcome: "The real challenge today is competing in the global economy. We can no longer work the way we used to. Manufacturers are experiencing pains associated with quality, cost, and delivery times, which are all tightly related to each other. To overcome these challenges, we must first admit that these pains exist and that change is needed."
When asked about what Cimatron does to help manufacturers compete, Golan referred to the process of tool shop optimization offered by Cimatron as a free service to toolmakers and manufacturers: "We tell shops that investing in technology is not enough. What they need to do first is optimize their tool shop processes. Only then can you decide on the right technology to accommodate the optimized flow in the shop."
Rayment started The Better Process Podcast with the goal of giving a voice to small and mid-sized manufacturing firms and sharing success stories that manufacturers can apply in their businesses. Rayment first came across Cimatron following an announcement of the company's recent donation of 160 seats to the Oakland Schools in Michigan. "With its generous donations to the education of future generations and by helping tool shop executives analyze and optimize their processes, Cimatron is taking a commendable approach that is helping the industry as a whole," said Rayment.
