Description
Have you ever stopped to think about the same part over differing volume ranges? We explore how setup time and price change over volume, but the process needed to change too. In our shops we have multiple tools in our toolbox. We need to think about how we apply our machine tools in the same way. Come see the changes a volume difference can make in a print session designed to make you think outside of box.
