Four questions every busbar fabricator should answer.
Cutting, punching, and bending busbar isn’t difficult, but doing it efficiently to maximize profit can be. Using a different machine to cut, punch, and bend your parts – especially if your equipment is made by different builders – presents challenges that can put a serious dent in the profitability of your busbar operation and could even shut you down when a critical part of the process fails.
How much does your busbar operation cost? Answer these four questions to find out:
1. How many times do you handle busbar before completing your parts?
Your costs increase every time a part is touched, moved, or set up between processing operations. Handling a part multiple times consumes a lot more time than a part processed by a single machine in one lean workflow.
2. How many operators does it take to process a part?
Like time, labor is expensive. Moving material between machines consumes labor hours, exhausts your employees, and increases the risk of injuries compared to processing a part from start to finish on a single machine.
3. Are bottlenecks occurring between operations?
Moving parts between multiple operations creates bottlenecks that slow production and increase labor costs.
4. How much floor space is dedicated to busbar processing equipment?
Why dedicate valuable floor space to separate punching, cutting and bending machines when a single, compact machine like our Payapress 3-in-1 busbar processing cell will do the job more efficiently and free up expensive square footage for other uses?
Is a stand-alone busbar processing system the best answer?
Manufacturers are often surprised how much production time and floor space can be recovered by consolidating cutting, punching, and bending into a single, streamlined workflow.
- Single machine to cut, punch, and bend busbar
- One control, one setup
- Compact footprint
- Fast ROI
