AICC Webinar To Help Members Use Benchmarking To Improve Margins AICC, The Independent Packaging Association, has been told by many members that their plants are being pushed further than they have seen in years. During busy times the efficiency of machines and teams is more critical than ever. AICC has developed new webinars to help members max- imize their machines and the knowledge of their teams. On Tuesday, October 26, AICC members can learn how companies are using benchmarking best practices to im- prove margins and reach peak performance in Operations Leaders: Get More from Your Machines Through Bench- marking. This webinar was developed with the support of AICC Member Guidewheel. AICC Technical Advisors Tom Weber and Ralph Young have joined up again to share their knowledge of pa-
perboard substrate surface characteristics and the man- ufacturing processes that build the printing interface for Defining the Graphic Grades of Substrates on Tuesday, November 9. Created with the support of AICC Education Investor, EFI, Best Practices for Effective Paper Management will teach attendees how to create a detailed analysis of a corrugator running schedule and identify huge saving op- portunities by consolidating paper grades and widths from your inventory on Thursday, November 11. Prioritizing a team’s limited time where it can have the greatest impact is critical - not just in today’s environment of labor and talent shortages, but also for the long term. In Operations Leaders: Prioritize Your Team’s Time to Get More from Your Machines, on Thursday, December 2, at- tendees will dig into best practices to identify and align their team around the actions that will have the greatest impact on the plant floor. Specifically, they will hear exam-
ples of how other companies identify and address top causes of downtime to move the needle on throughput and margin. This webinar was developed with the support of AICC Member Guidewheel.
