Leveraging Technology

One key option that Becker decided to include with the Masterfold was the GyroBox, a module that turns the product 90 degrees and provides in-line, one-pass processing that otherwise would require a right angle machine or two passes. Deciding to incorporate the GyroBox was not an easy decision for Becker, because, as he said, "It's not a cheap add-on. I took a big chance with this because I could only identify one previous job that I would have had to turn down without this capability." But in the end, he believed it would pay off and it did. "We have been able to produce at least 15 new jobs since we installed the Masterfold last November because of the Gyro, and it has help us with our product diversification."
