Faster (High speed -> increased production) Harder (Ability to cut or form harder materials) Cheaper (Less lubricants -> materials saving) Longer (Extended tool life -> fewer replacements) A 20% reduction in manufacturing time gives 15% saving per part. This is due to a less time on machinery and staffjng. If a company produces the same quan- tity of parts, but 6 times faster, with tools that survive 4 times longer it can deliver a saving of 75% compared to an un-op- timized solution.
