Description:
By automating the pedestal drawer front process we will be able to relocate 2 technicians elsewhere in the plant where they will be more valuable. This project will help KI Canada become less dependent on temporary labour. With an aging workforce and a small pool of potential employees to draw from, KI needs to begin automating its more mundane and monotonous tasks. If successful, this project could pave the way for future automation projects.
