MONTREAL, May 9, 2019 /CNW Telbec/ – According to the latest results from STIQ’s Baromètre industriel québécois (Quebec Industrial Barometer), SMEs continue to suffer from a labour shortage, to the point where it is compromising the growth of some of them. The number of positions to fill represents on average 15% of the total number of employees, ranging from 10% for companies with 100 to 500 employees to 21% for those with 10 to 19 employees. Small businesses are thus twice as affected by the labour shortage as the larger companies. The study also shows that 83% of respondents say they are concerned about skilled labour recruitment problems, while three quarters consider succession to be a major issue, such levels have not been seen in the last 10 years.

Additive Manufacturing (AM) technology is still in its infancy, relative to established techniques such as milling, anyway. Like any infant, it is progressing at a dramatic rate. The image of AM as the 3D printing that goes on in a box in a corner is already out of date. Mainstream manufacturers like DMG Mori and Mazak are offering hybrid machines; equipment with both deposition (AM) and reductive (milling) capabilities. Autodesk PowerMill 2019 is designed to meet the growing demand for hybrid manufacturing.
Solaxis Ingenious Manufacturing, a Bromont-based company specializing in additive manufacturing (industrial 3D printing) for almost 8 years, joined Aero Montreal’s MACH FAB 4.0 Initiative in January 2018. The program will help Solaxis continue its shift to the 4.0 industry, which it started a few years ago.
