Digital transformation at FACO Metalltechnik

Impact on employees and management

Digital transformation at FACO Metalltechnik

There is a lot of talk about digital transformation, but what are the implications for business management and each individual?

The importance of digital development is undisputed. An early realization is also that digital innovation must be affordable and not a priority per se. Modern machines with digital connectivity and a high degree of technical intelligence are cost-intensive and only worthwhile if utilization is consistently high. One of our considerations was to purchase a new, modern press brake that would allow faster, digital planning and programming of control steps from the desk. We decided against the six-figure purchase because the payback period was still too long for us.
