‘We didn’t know how much we were missing, until we had it!’
Having a toolroom in-house in the UK has been a massive advantage and the toolmaker team have pulled out all the stops for NHS tooling and moulding to help in the fight.
Andel implemented Intouch in 2018, using the system to monitor its 20 injection moulding machines and 2 CNC machining centres.

- Identify issues
- Solve issues quickly
- Meet delivery deadlines
‘We most regularly use the scheduling of orders onto the machines: this enables us to immediately see whether we are running over or under capacity and allows us to react quickly.’
- See whether they are over or under capacity
- React quickly
Andel finds the ability to monitor their cycle times consistently over a production run as well as keeping a tally on scrap produced means that they can charge their customers a price in-line with actual production costs.
Intouch’s customer service is excellent with requests for customisation and additional reports dealt with professionally and speedily.
