    Default job background
    Description

    How can we work more efficiently? is the question that occupies our Improvement Engineering department on a daily basis. Voortman is growing rapidly and technological developments are also following each other at a rapid pace. Our Improvement Engineers are indispensable in optimizing our processes.

    Want to join our Improvement Engineering department?

    In the Improvement Engineering department, Production and Improvement Engineers work together on one goal: optimizing processes. Where the Production Engineers are mainly working on Research & Development and improving the daily processes, our Improvement Engineers focus on one or two large projects at the same time. Such as redesigning our assembly hall, so that our colleagues from Assembly & Production can work even more efficiently, which involves examining how the workstations can be better arranged. For example, flexible workstations ensure that any machine can be built at any location. The input of colleagues that work in our workplace is crucial for this. As Improvement Engineer you work closely with the Purchasing , Logistics , Engineering and Project Preparation departments.

    Voortman is growing rapidly and technological developments are also following each other at a rapid pace. Our Improvement Engineers are indispensable in optimizing our processes. The best thing about working as an Improvement Engineer? That technical knowledge and analytical skills are combined and you will see the results of your work very quickly. With every project, our Improvement Engineers use the same working method. First, the current process is mapped out, after which the subprojects that result from that must be prioritized. Our Improvement Engineers do this by weighing which improvement project will yield the most profit in terms of time, money and quality. In that order the Improvement Engineers execute the projects, using a Lean working method.

    TEAM

    The Improvement Engineering department consists of young, driven colleagues who are determined to finish what they started. The team includes experienced colleagues, but there is always room for students doing an internship or working as a side job. Learning from and with each other is very important, as is a good dose of enthusiasm. And of course there is also time for fun

    "WE ARE ENTREPRENEURS, INVOLVED, DOWN-TO-EARTH AND WE LIKE CRAFTMANSHIP AND TECHNOLOGY" IMPROVEMENT ENGINEERING: AN INDISPENSABLE ELEMENT IN OUR PROJECTS THE LARGEST AUTOMATED VOORTMAN SYSTEM EVER

    J&D Pierce Contracts Ltd. is a large structural steel fabricator based in Glengarnock, United Kingdom. Pierce invested in the largest European fully automated Voortman system. Due to the size of this immense project, the system was on forehand determined and designed based on real-time simulations.

    Derek Pierce, CEO van J&D Pierce, explains: " I did expect quit a few glitches with the total automation and the load balancing and there were very few problems which I was incredibly impressed with. The system is a large system and it has a tremendous amount of automation and they all worked almost perfectly first time which I was incredibly impressed with. We can do 200 tonnes per day without any issue at all. The facility is more than capable of doing way over 1.000 tonnes per week."

    Ian Cahill, managing director of Cahill Structures, based in England, is a testament to the transformative power of the right machinery in structural steel fabrication. "The industry we're in is a very competitive industry. Everything's about being efficient." In the pursuit of efficiency, Cahill found himself on a quest for quality machinery to reduce man-hours and increase production capacity. This led him to Voortman. With Voortman's machinery, Cahill Structures has seen a significant reduction in man-hours by an average of 25 to 30% per ton. Cahill states, " We can run both machines load and unload and start the steel with two people." The company now handles projects well in excess of £7 million, a far cry from their early days of £50,000 projects. " The machine can do the work of five or six men running a day."
