I sit down with Chris, the CTO of Worthington Assembly at APEX 2024 and explore the significance of a highly skilled workforce in maintaining technical excellence within the industry. Chris's insights offer a glimpse into the operations of Worthington Assembly, where their team's expertise is not just a foundation but a magnet attracting long-term customer partnerships, especially prized in sectors like medical devices. Chris details how customers find themselves committed to the value of technical precision and the collaborative design process that Worthington Assembly provides.
As the conversation steers towards the complexities of supply chain and obsolescence issues, we shed light on the innovative strategies that keep production lines running amidst supply chain disruption. We touch on the driving forces behind the surge in automation and AI in manufacturing, exploring how they are reshaping the landscape of efficiency and precision.
