A core strength of Hildurcrest Group's value stems from a background in industrial design, production technologies, assembly automation and robotics. Utilizing the depth of insights gained from over 35 years of experience, we offer unique value as a one stop resource for evaluating improvements across three different disciplines; product design, Assembly automation, and Six-sigma lean optimization. 

 

For high-mix/ low-volume operations, our programs typically uncover  solutions that deliver 1.5 to 3X increase in throughput, 10%-25% improvements in direct labor efficiency, and flexible operational efficiencies that streamline planning, increase quality, and improve Ebita through bottom line efficiencies.

 

For low mix/high volume operations, we identify innovative technologies that enable sorting, assembly automation and inline  inspection.  We deliver solutions that result in higher quality, less scrap, and higher throughputs through a strategic approach to manufacturing and planning.

 

Bespoke assembly automation solutions:

​

We offer turnkey design and production of customized benchtop and cell automation solutions that bridges the gap from manual R&D processes To production requirements and controls.  Our innovative approach eliminates the need for re-validation and reduces time to production by up to 75% (focus on medical instrument and pharma delivery new product launch) 

 

Very often significant gains can be achieved through smart automation. 

Very often losses are incurred by automating processes that are not streamlined for automation.

 

 Avoid fitting a square peg into a round hole; the move to automation must first be scrutinized to ensure a seamless and effective transition.
