The inherent complexity of managing large-scale extrusion projects means they are not do-it-yourself endeavors. But not all professional project services are created equally, and it is important to find a partner who is up to the task of helping you navigate your specific challenges—someone who understands the nuances and complexities of food production, and someone with broad experience and know-how to customize a plan for your unique vision and goals.
Insights & Resources
Modern technology makes it possible to complete tasks faster, but quicker results shouldn’t mean sacrificing accuracy or convenience. The Wenger Document Portal delivers manuals and technical documentation digitally to merge speed, accuracy and convenience...another way we’re striving to reach our north star mission: unparalleled customer experience.
In a more robust economy, the traditional response to growing demand is to acquire new production equipment and expand production facilities accordingly. But, given today’s market dynamics, manufacturers are reevaluating their strategies and trending towards optimizing existing resources and enhancing their current production capabilities and available spaces.
Project managers working in a global marketplace are often the binding agents that help people from diverse backgrounds connect and find common ground. Customers, manufacturers, suppliers and other parties involved are all trying to achieve the same goal, and to be productive amid those challenges requires open-mindedness, patience and humility; and that can be summed up in one powerful word: Empathy.
When extrusion is part of your next build project, how do you best leverage that large capital investment to make the most sense for your factory and produce the best possible throughput? The process component layouts and product flows are complex and require specialized expertise to navigate the numerous variables – small arrangement fluctuations can drive a vast difference in results. Whether you have deep internal project capacity or plan to outsource your production expansion or greenfield site, you may be wondering — “how can I utilize CPS expertise alongside another engineering group?” That collaboration is one of our specialties.
