Abstract

Introducing new technology to the processes of design, production, assembly and management in manufacturing offers enormous opportunities — greater flexibility and quality; reduced costs, inventory and lead‐times. But it often doesn't work out like that — a report commissioned by Ingersoll Engineers showed that 50% of Advanced Manufacturing Technology applications were judged unsuccessful by the firms involved.
