Keep chips flying! 

Machine shops typically operate CNC machines at only 60-70% capacity, and there are multiple reasons behind this. The lack of skilled operators is one factor. The manufacturing industry faces major challenges, including high job turnover rates of up to 50% and a projected labor deficit of over 10% by 2030. The younger generation’s disinterest in repetitive and low-skilled jobs contributes to this deficit. Finding one good candidate is difficult, but finding a second candidate for a second shift is even more challenging. Finding a candidate willing to work night shifts feels almost like a miracle. But in today’s uncertain economic climate, with rising interest rates and global instability, wasting 30% of runtime is simply unaffordable.
