As we step into 2025, the manufacturing industry continues to change, bringing both challenges and opportunities. At Simplex System Controls, we approach the year optimistically, recognizing the significant role that automation, talent, and strategic partnerships play.
Automation Changes the Game
Simplex continues investing in both Lean manufacturing and cutting-edge automation to work alongside team members. Recently, the company invested in innovation through Personal Wiring Assistant (PWA) technology; see the technology in action in our video. The PWA 6000 and PWA 5000 machines assist in complex wiring applications. Specifically, these technologies are helping to reduce standard labor time by up to 30%, allowing for greater production capacity, precision, and on-time delivery.
Empowering Talent for the Future
Automation isn’t about replacing people; it’s about enabling the business to do more. By streamlining repetitive tasks, Simplex teams can focus on customer-facing roles and strategic initiatives, making a further impact. Talent development is a top priority to produce results. It’s a win-win to offer employees new career paths, training programs, and a modern, state-of-the-art facility that makes it a great place to work.
A Vision for the Industry
“Our industry is at an inflection point. The renewed focus on US manufacturing, combined with the power of automation is creating further growth opportunities. I am optimistic about the industry outlook both now and throughout the year,” says Kurt Sundberg, President of Simplex System Controls.
The forward-thinking, holistic approach at Simplex will also contribute to the momentum in the industry.
Strength in Partnerships
With the rapid pace of business and market needs, no company can do it alone. Partnering with an industry expert like Simplex ensures projects stay on track with proven expertise and a focus on quality.
