ART Technologies Gets Leaner By Fully Automating a Second Bearing Assembly Machine


July 20, 2008 - ART Technologies of Hamilton, OH, recently fully automated a second bearing assembly machine. ART Technologies has long been a leader in ball and tapered roller thrust bearings. In a continuous effort to remain the leader ART addressed the need to increase production capacity without increasing cost.

The new automated machine has built in automated inspection/measurement equipment, not only increasing production capacity, but also 100% inspecting every bearing as it comes off the machine. This new automation makes ART the world's leading producer of thrust bearings for jack assemblies. The automation not only adds increased capability to ART's assembly department, it also decreases the time required to assure a quality part 100% of the time.

Remaining lean and keeping one step ahead of the competition is critical for ART Technologies and our customers. It all starts with well defined and manageable manufacturing processes. Working closely with our customer utilizing our TS16949 approved management process to ensure that all of our employees have the tools that they need to deliver the best possible sourcing experience to our customers. This investment in automation is another example of ART Technologies listening and responding to the market and our customers.
