MetalQuest Manufacturing Day

Tour a fully automated machine shop

Are you a manufacturer struggling to compete amid skilled labor shortages, supply chain disruptions, and increased global competition? To compete today, manufacturers need to arm themselves with the latest tech tools that enable them to achieve digital continuity and the efficiencies it provides.

SOLIDWORKS would like to invite you to Manufacturing Day, hosted by MetalQuest, a leading-edge contract manufacturer that's been at the forefront of automation technology since 1996. The company, based in Hebron, Nebraska, is a custom manufacturing facility that specializes in CNC-based machining of highly complex parts for the Industrial Equipment industry.

See first-hand how MetalQuest is using automation and other tech solutions to:

• Mitigate labor shortages with increased use of automation
• Design more sophisticated work cells to meet customer demands
• Minimize time spent on the floor for non-value processes by identifying potential design and process related issues prior to manufacturing.

METALQUEST KEY BUSINESS DRIVERS:

• Reduced timelines to complete increasing amounts of RFQ’s that required more detailed engineering efforts upfront.
• Work cell design had become more complex from tending multiple advanced machining centers.
• Minimize time spent on the floor for non-value add processes (e.g. rework) by identifying potential design and process related issues prior to manufacturing.
