Wedoany.com Report on Mar 10th, Deep hole drilling machine and technology manufacturer UNISIG has introduced a new build-to-order program for its versatile UNE series gun drilling machines. This initiative combines fast delivery with custom configuration, aiming to help workshops and manufacturers acquire gun drilling capabilities more efficiently.

Anthony Fettig, CEO of UNISIG, stated: "Gun drilling machines are less common than CNC milling machines or lathes, but that doesn't mean customers should endure longer lead times, performance compromises, or poor service. With this new program, we are making it easier for customers to adopt gun drilling technology." This build-to-order program maintains an inventory of key UNE series components, allowing machines to be assembled according to specific customer specifications, avoiding the waste and delays associated with pre-built inventory or full customization.

Compared to traditional build-to-order systems, this program typically cuts lead times in half, enabling customers to obtain the products they need more quickly. Fettig added: "At UNISIG, we are always focused on the future, and our build-to-order program is a prime example. Implementing this approach modernizes key operational areas by improving machine quality, shortening lead times, and optimizing service part requirements and inventory management."

This program relies on close coordination between engineering, supply chain, manufacturing, and customer service. Modular machine design, synchronized ERP systems, and automated planning tools enable UNISIG to provide customized machines while effectively controlling quality, cost, and inventory. As an important piece of equipment in industrial manufacturing, the innovation of the build-to-order model for gun drilling machines holds the potential to bring more flexible production solutions to the global manufacturing industry.
