Case Study: Clearwater Engineering lowers scrap by 45% with TDM
Clearwater Engineering is a small aerospace contract manufacturing firm with big goals. Now, Tool Data Management software from TDM Systems is helping them reach those goals.
Along with the 45% reduction in scrap rate because of the wrong holders used or tools being set wrong, Clearwater Engineering, Derby, KS, USA had a 26% reduction in tool usage, and realized 350 hours savings in setup as well as other savings since we implemented TDM.
Said Jaramie Cool, Clearwater Engineering (Derby, KS) Engineering Director, “It’s an amazing software. We are glad we invested in TDM. It’s been extremely helpful for both our engineering and the shop floor.”
Clearwater Engineering was a small firm that refused to accept second best. The result for this aircraft component engineering and production specialist: steady growth. “When I began with the firm in 2006, we had five employees,” says Jaramie Cool, Engineering Director at Clearwater Engineering, “today we have forty, with a facility expansion planned within the next two years.”
