What happens when a team can actually see the impact of waste, flow, communication, and standard work in real time?

That’s the power of simulation.

After sessions across Illinois, our Lean Manufacturing Overview with Simulation is coming to Northern Illinois, giving manufacturers an opportunity to experience lean principles in action, not just hear about them.

Through a hands-on production simulation, participants see firsthand how small process changes can affect throughput, quality, efficiency, and team performance. It's an engaging way to connect lean concepts to real-world manufacturing challenges.

Whether you're new to lean or looking to reinforce the fundamentals with your team, this workshop provides practical insights you can take back to the shop floor.

Moving material shouldn’t be the bottleneck.

In casting and forging operations, material movement impacts productivity, safety, throughput, and labor utilization more than many manufacturers realize. When movement isn’t optimized, the effects ripple across the operation.

In this webinar, we’ll explore practical automation strategies manufacturers are using to modernize material movement, improve efficiency, and support safer, more streamlined operations.

Join IMEC, Alta Equipment Group, and PeakLogix as we discuss approaches specifically relevant to casting and forging environments and where manufacturers can start seeing impact.
