ARNING: the following text is not intended for consumption by oldschool fabricators and plant managers – especially those without a desire to evolve alongside new and developing technologies
However, if you are showing any of the following symptoms, you are advised to read on immediately:
•
A sudden, sharp curiosity of automation and the potential to save you time, money, and stress
•
An acute ability to perceive long-lasting industry change
•
Lingering aspirations of success and achievement that you would like to retain
At Vekta, we are focused on finding solutions. Solutions that help you build the best frames and trusses possible – this is the crux of what we do, and we do it with the expertise that our longevity in the area affords us. Invaluable feedback, insights, and support from our customers have been instrumental in our creation of new, groundbreaking solutions that are pushing the boundaries of what is possible in frame and truss manufacturing. With plenty of recent integration experience on projects with existing product from third-party manufacturers, this year we gained an even greater understanding of the strengths and opportunities presented by a wide range of industry equipment and how to integrate a fit-for-purpose solution that optimizes our customers’ operations. The industry trend of full plant automation has seen our bespoke Direct Delivery System (DDS) continue to prove itself as the gold standard in automated member delivery. Our Real-Time Optimization (RTO) software has shifted the paradigm of how many plants work and how plant managers think, finally delivering a solution for just-in-time cutting that reduces waste and increases efficiency and productivity. We now have frame and truss plants that rely on a single operator for one, two, or three saws. We aren’t stopping there, with further rollouts of new software solutions planned for next year we are confident this change is just the beginning of a new era in frame and truss production. In 2024, our PackFeeder material handling solution has continued to be the preferred choice for customers who want to save floor space but still need quick delivery of boards to the saw. Looking ahead, our Research and Development team has recently shipped our first stand-alone PackFeeder, Continued next page
