A Swiss company specialized in the production of instruments and components for dental surgery. It is one of the world leaders in its field and employs about 4800 people with two sites. The parts are very complex to machine because they are both very resistant and very small (twice as small as a match) and there are many standards to respect, which makes the work of the operators very difficult. 'Our main problem was getting our parts into production. It used to take us a day and a half to make all the adjustments to the machines before Ellistat APC was set up. Today, we are able to adjust our parts in one go. We have a huge gain in set-up time' says the production engineer.
