Custom Applications for Lean Initiatives
Optimize Your Processes
In order to remain competitive and increase value to customers, lean thinking is an integral part of operations. Continuous improvement with an emphasis on reducing waste will help optimize lean processes. Flexible systems that accommodate your current needs and can be easily modified for the future is key.
Profiles = Productivity
Off-the-shelf applications lock you into products that don’t optimize your resources. This leads to waste of valuable floor space and forces employees to conform to the application instead of the other way around. 80/20 provides custom solutions that are scalable and improve process flow to support your focus on lean.
Strong Yet Flexible
Longevity of materials is important to create lean solutions, along with flexibility for maintenance and redesign or expansion. 80/20 T-slot aluminum profiles offer a reconfigurable option with durability and strength comparable to steel. What’s more, T-slot products don’t have the corrosive properties, heavy assembly and maintenance costs associated with non-aluminum materials.

An Integrated Approach
The T-slot profile has a channel that allows you to mount components directly to your structure. This provides infinite positioning of accessories such as sensors, valves, monitors, safety controls, motors, and barcode scanners, all of which are integrated right into your application. Profiles work double-duty, allowing you to run tubes and wires within the T-slot channel or even add pressurization directly to your frame or workstation.
