Innovation is key to Zantech; the company strives to always apply the latest technologies and techniques in their production processes. Automation is crucial for Zantech to maintain their high quality standards and shorten lead times.

THE QUEST FOR ADVANCED CALCULATION SOFTWARE
In a constant search for optimization of their production processes, Zantech saw the need for an advanced and user-friendly calculation system. The complexity of their production, with varying machines and technologies, required an efficient solution to make price calculations quickly and accurately and easily make changes to customers’ STEP files. Automation is crucial for Zantech to maintain their high quality standards and shorten lead times. The partnership with Bystronic highlights their commitment to advanced technology and innovation in their production lines.

HOW ZANTECH DEALS WITH STAFF SHORTAGES
The metal industry is struggling with personnel shortages. The number of technically trained personnel is becoming increasingly smaller. Niels Mattheeuwse, work planner at Zantech, explains:

“In the past 7 years that I have been working here, a number of people have retired, and you notice that a lot of knowledge is being lost and nowadays people are all very keen to continue their studies. Finding qualified employees is becoming increasingly difficult. This shortage makes it necessary to automate.”

By implementing advanced automation solutions, Zantech can keep productivity high and reduce dependence on scarce technical labor.

“Automation helps us to increase efficiency and reduce the workload for our staff, so that we can continue to grow and innovate.” According to Niels.

Automation is therefore crucial to meet the challenges of the current market and stay ahead of the competition.
