Recently, a world-renowned brass musical instrument manufacturer (that prints on metallic instruments, specifically brass) was having an issue with the efficiency of their printing process.
Challenge:
The instrument manufacturer was struggling with printing productivity on their cymbals. Cymbals are made up of brass for beginner cymbals and bronze for advanced which includes a blend of copper, tin, zinc, and trace amounts of silver that define this company’s distinct sound. Their previous production process required constant supervision because of inconsistent pad transfer, irregular lines etc.
Solution:
When our team received the call and made an in-person visit, we conducted an audit of their printing process. After reviewing, we determined that the issue was their ink. So, we recommended the Natron® BX Series ink. This high gloss, high opacity ink would solve their production issues with its seamless efficiency.
We did a production run using the Natron® BX Series ink by deploying the BX Series into their robotics printing cells. The BX Series exceeded expectations. The customer was thrilled with the quality and ease with which the BX Series prints – it achieved perfect ink transfer over 24 hours.
Results:
The customer was able to reduce supervision by 90% and double their throughput. The customer has now improved their printing production by switching to Natron® BX Series. Our team also compiled a list of current and future customer needs for the manufacturer including pain points and production desires.
