After yesterday completely in 10 hours of driving and the first impressions were Las Vegas and across geblogt have not, therefore, today I bring a little something to ... It is therefore a long post ;-)
First a few words about Stampin 'Up! in Riverton and as an explanation to the pictures, which you can view HERE again:
When we arrived we were greeted very nice and friendly from Amy. It is at SU for the guides in the house and we had jurisdiction in the run at a very nice e-mail contact.
She showed us the first show-room, where Shelli has largely self-created hand. In the showroom, many techniques are used, in part to decorative purposes, for interior design or as gift ideas.
also available throughout the building display cases with cards, layouts, and packaging, all very harmoniously designed and issued.
Then Amy showed us where the "Creative" section is. Here we were unfortunately not in, and I have only one photo in an office inside "shot".
Then it went into the huge hall where the logistics are housed.
Everything here is controlled by sophisticated computer equipment. That was really impressive. This huge high shelves, full to the roof.
In one photograph we see the first station here, the cases referred the size of the order selected and collectively, the "built" (with a degree is no other word ...).
The stacking boxes that you see on the image range, for about 2 weeks ...
Then the board goes on the conveyor belt on the trip. This band goes through the entire hall and the box is filled in stages with the articles.
The tape goes past the shelves, then lights up on the shelves in the related article, which must in the box, a light to know so that the employees have to pack what they do.
course is then checked against the delivery note.
Finally, the carton is sealed and goes directly over a ramp in a container for onward travel.
As I said, all modern and highly automated.
Shelli unfortunately was not there, they came on the same day only back from Canada.
But we, the President Dale Fillmore welcomed in person and we could even take a picture with him.
The next day we made our way to Kanab. Here is the production of SU.
As Amy told us that we should meet here with Josh Adams. However
came we with 1.5 hours late in Riverton on the ride was longer than expected (5 hours from Salt Lake City, you may even up to 120 km / h ...).
Josh Since then, however, the dentist was brought us Richard Thornton, the Production Manager, through the production.
follow photos from this yet, I have just downloaded 1150 photos from my camera, I need to edit the first ;-)
Again, the whole system was designed super, very impressive and well maintained.
Here too - as in Riverton - the staff a lot of space, full kitchens with microwaves, refrigerators and even PC's (for Private purposes during the breaks) are available.
Then it went into production, but where we were allowed to take any pictures unfortunately.
Unlike Riverton is still almost all made by hand.
We have seen how the "negative" panels of the stamp, how can these plates are pressed into the rubber sheets.
is followed by the visual inspection, if there are some stamp committee, they are then labeled by hand.
now be punched with the contours (so we can "squeeze out" the stamps only from the plate) must be stamped and the committee immediately rejected.
Then go the plates to the next station, then here are the stamp with wood blocks and the stickers put into the boxes and sorted into boxes.
This then come on pallets and ready for shipment to Riverton.
It was really interesting and impressive, all this to have views.
Again many thanks to Axel Kramer, our Managing Director Germany, has made this possible :-)
So now I'll edit out the photos, that I may have something of the journey through the Canyon and Las Vegas show to ... People, something as here I have not seen!
the way we have in the Hard Rock Hotel checked in, where of course, is also a casino ;-)
to be continued ...
Kerstin, Jürgen, Alex and Susie
