During the autumn of 2021, work began on replacing heating via natural gas with district heating.
Why do we do this? Well, we want to help reduce greenhouse gas emissions from burning fossil fuels.
We take help from the GHG protocol(Greenhouse Gas Protocol)which is a global standard for measuring, managing and reporting greenhouse gas emissions.
The GHG protocol divides the emissions into different so-called scopes, where we first work with scope 1, which contains direct greenhouse gas emissions, ie emissions over which the business has direct control.
Scope 1 concerns, for example, greenhouse gas emissions from vehicles and machines that the business owns or leases.
We hope that the switch from natural gas to district heating will contribute positively to a better environment.

We are pleased to present Johan Lind who is our new Key Account Manager. Johan is 29 years old and born and raised in Gnosjö where he lives with his family. Some short presentation words from Johan:
“I enjoy the tranquility of the countryside but like to travel to new places and cultures. In my free time I like to spend time with family and friends, preferably over a dinner where I am in charge of the cooking. The parade dish is beef Rydberg with a really good mustard cream”.
We are very grateful that our team is strengthened with Johan who we know will take good care of our customers.

We received a number of improvement proposals which we have already begun to discuss today. Everything within the framework of what we call Falkwork®.

We have many new projects and new customer articles and are therefore looking for a setter.
We are looking for you who have experience of cutting machining, preferably for machine type Mazak. The work includes being able to independently set up new products and thus have good knowledge of tools and cutting data.
As a person, you are independent but can work together in a group. A prerequisite for understanding the quality standards that we work by is that your Swedish is good in speech and writing.
Falks Metall can offer a high-tech workplace where technology and automation characterize our business. The service is during the day.
When are you needed?
We think you can start with us immediately.

We can announce today that we have received a new order for hot pressed
brass components!
Hot pressing is a cost-effective method that provides higher strength than, for example, casting.
The method is well suited for articles used in areas where liquid, gas and the like are transported.
Feel free to ask us about casting and hot pressing, turning and milling.

The two students Ioana and Cezar from Jönköping University (JU) will do their degree project at Falks Metall. The goal is to automate the reading of the Eltimon units from Mimatic.
Today we read these units manually, but the goal is to create a fully automated reading in our Mazak Multiplex. Reconciliations in the project will be made weekly from week 6, 2021 together with representatives from Mimatic, Ravema and Falks Metall AB.

Falks Metall’s work with control boards / pulse boards began in connection with the national project Produktionslyftet. The paintings became a daily gathering point for most employees. In connection with our trip through Produktionslyftet being completed in 2015, we realized that there was so much more to work with.
When the opportunity arose to take part in a research project, Vis’man, which concerned our billboards, we wanted to be part of it. Being able to work closely with researchers is very exciting. It creates other angles and provides new insights.
In our case, a workshop in June 2018 was the start of an improvement in the field of communication. How do we spread information? Not a really easy nut to crack. Anyway; after three years of work in the Vis’man project, this was completed. Read more about the project here:
Are we at Falk ready for the project?
No, the paintings are constantly updated to match our current needs.

Lead is a common alloying element in brass, but due to its health hazard, it is becoming increasingly important to look at lead-free alternatives.
Falks Metall has experience of processing Ecobrass®, which is a lead-free brass.

Statistical process control (SPS) is the application of statistical methods for monitoring and controlling processes. We use CPK to control our manufacturing process. A high CPK value indicates a stable process.
Our customers want us to achieve CPK 1.33. This simply means that 99.9937% of our items will be manufactured within set tolerances (provided the process is stable).
The photo shows one of our monitors in production. The list is real-time for the properties that currently have the lowest CPK value for manufactured items (a range between CPK 1.6 to 7.0)
With an outcome like this, we and our customers can be confident that our manufacturing process is stable.
