MANUFACTURING
Hauser is determined to tackle .
“ In Switzerland , we have a dual system which allows people to start with an apprenticeship and climb up the ladder to become an engineer ,” he said . “ Apprentices make up around 10 percent of our employees and we also send our Swiss experts to the factories in China and Taiwan to carry out our internal training programmes . It ’ s a continuous process - one of the biggest challenges for us is to replicate the quality of production outside of Switzerland .”
Through implementation of its clear six point strategy , Tornos is well-set to finish its 2012-2017 cycle in a position where it can further target global markets and compete with growing competition from East Asia . And by targeting specialised manufacturers and continuing to innovate its own machine tool range , the Swiss hallmark of quality will continue to stamp its mark on the world stage .
