Minimizing Conversion Costs through Employee Training

Rieter INmill training program provides know-how to the technical team of a spinning mill

Labor expenses in different countries account for anywhere between 6 and 13% of total yarn production costs. The right training can make a world of difference. Rieter’s INmill customer trainings teach mill staff how to minimize conversion costs, so they can have a positive impact on the spinning mill’s bottom line.

Controlling and optimizing conversion costs is key for any mill manager in order to produce yarn profitably.

When investing in new machines and systems, mill managers need to be sure their machines run trouble-free from day one to avoid costly losses. It is therefore crucial to invest in the workforce’s know-how so they can utilize machines most effectively.

Know-How Is the Key to Success

Industrial yarn manufacturing is highly competitive. Know-how hence represents an important part of a mill’s investment. State-of-the-art technology, advancing automation technologies, and fast-changing market requirements increasingly call for expertly trained staff in spinning mills.

When a highly productive spinning machine stands still because of a batch change, trouble or faulty running, this may result in considerable production loss. It is necessary to detect and solve problems fast. This can only happen with profound machine know-how.

The Rieter INmill customer training helps instruct the technical team to make sure that all qualitative and quantitative resources of the machines are used to their fullest potential. Mechanical and electronic issues are professionally located and quickly sorted out.

Today, spinning machines are easier to operate. Even so, high utilization and efficiency can only be ensured if maintenance settings and professional troubleshooting are optimized. With an INmill training program, the required know-how can be taught to the spinning mill’s technical team.

Apart from the technical know-how, it is of utmost importance that the technical team can detect hidden economic inefficiencies in the spinning process and take measures to control them.

Designed around the specific challenges spinning mills face regarding cost and quality requirements, Rieter developed a training module called the Mill Economics training course. It covers the key success factors of spinning mills: Productivity, quality and conversion costs. The Mill Economics training course aims to connect theory with practice and provides insights into how to increase profit margins while producing consistent yarn quality.

Any technical and management measure in a spinning mill also impacts its overall commercial performance. However, success in the spinning industry requires the right preparation. This includes timely training of the technical team.
