Attendees will be able to explore how Sigmetrix can help them deliver more innovative products through mechanical variation management as well as improve profitability by balancing product quality with manufacturing costs.  

 

MCKINNEY, Texas – November , 2024-- Sigmetrix, global experts in mechanical variation management announced that they will be attending the Generis American Automotive Summit being held on November 12-13 at the MGM Grand Detroit in Booth 3

 

The American Automotive Summit provides insights and strategies to enhance the professional development of executives involved in automotive manufacturing, operations, design, engineering, supply chain quality, and innovation. This executive automotive event serves as an annual platform to exchange ideas surrounding the impact of market dynamics and new technologies for current and future automotive leaders.   

 This year’s automotive conference will examine key case studies around how workforce management, manufacturing process optimization, quality/cost management and automation are being rolled out at the world's best facilities! There will be networking opportunities with over 150 automotive leaders along with the ability to learn from the industry’s top influencers.   

Traditional views on the management and understanding of mechanical variation have stifled innovation in some companies and limited them to only developing derivative products. The best-performing companies see how a consistent understanding of mechanical variation throughout an organization and the ability to quickly simulate sensitivity to variation in concepts leads to more innovative, breakthrough products.​   

 Mechanical variation is a reality of the manufacturing process and can be costly and time-consuming if not controlled. The reality is that variation can and should be managed, and there are several steps you can take to get there.  Sigmetrix  focuses on helping their customers improve profitability by balancing product quality with the cost of manufacturing. This benefit can be achieved by quickly iterating to find dimensional controls for desired quality.   

  • Making cost-effective process decisions.  
  • Determining impact and action for “out of spec” parts.  
  • Assisting with sustaining engineering and cost reduction efforts.  
  • Providing consistent data and understanding throughout the process.  

“Sigmetrix helps companies manage their Mechanical Variation to make better products,” states Ed Walsh, Chief Revenue Officer. “Variation is something that is inevitable in manufacturing and can affect the quality of products. The Automotive Industry relies on rigorous safety and production standards, which is why it is important to properly manage variation. If not managed correctly, products aren’t going to be up to standard.” 

Attendees will want to make sure to catch Ed Walsh, Chief Revenue Officer present “How a Better Understanding of Mechanical Variation Can Drive Your Product Development.” on Tuesday November 12th at 12:05PM ET in Room 3. Also, make sure to sign up for Ed’s “Lunch & Learn” session on Tuesday November 12th at 12:45PM ET.
