2021-09-10T08:46:44-05:00

By DSI/Dynamatic Diversity and inclusion in a workforce can lead to a highly competitive advantage in manufacturing.

Supportive leaders in manufacturing provide an energy and commitment that encourage employees to do their best work, which can lead to higher [...]

State of Manufacturing – Summer 2021

2021-08-02T15:07:39-05:00

by Shannon Simpson-Digital Marketing Specialist, DuraTech Industries & DSI/Dynamatic, Inc. Like many industries, U.S. Manufacturing was not spared from the disruption of the COVID-19 Pandemic. Manufacturers faced significant challenges during the pandemic, from forced factory shut downs to shifting to solely producing essential supplies.  Product shortages and capacity constraints implicated supply chains. The safety and wellbeing of the essential workforce created changes to Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) requirements, as well as health and environmental policies.  Many companies moved non-production workforce to remote sites, mainly worker’s homes. Nobody was prepared for this pandemic and the impact is not over. So, where does [...]

Of course, it’s not difficult to minimize down time in your facility. You should note the age of your equipment. If it has a Dynamatic nameplate, it’s generally good for several [...]
