烟草在线据《烟业通讯》报道编译　　菲尔创纳过滤嘴产品公司执行了一项全球机器战略，通过升级和对新的先进器械的投资优化自己的机器技术。

　　在对市场发展趋势进行了全面的分析和对公司包含着9个生产基地数百台机器的机器技术进行审核之后，菲尔创纳开展了这项全球战略。

　　菲尔创纳过滤嘴产品公司的全球业务董事马丁·达德利说：“在越来越呈现动态化的市场，我们拥有不仅可以满足客户当前需求，也能满足他们未来要求的生产能力和生产设施，这一点十分重要。”

　　菲尔创纳过滤嘴产品公司在一份新闻稿中说：“最近几年来，烟草市场越来越把注意力集中在质量方面，这使得很多客户缩紧了他们对质量和性能公差的容忍度。”

　　“这种发展趋势会继续下去，而同时，又一种趋势是在更大范围内的产品的订单量会减少。”

　　“除了这项战略之外，菲尔创纳还通过投资一些领先的机械技术，加强自己生产创新性特种过滤嘴的能力。它还执行了一项升级现有机器的计划，这些机器的参数要求它具有以自动化程度和程序控制得到加强为特色的高速现代机器。”

　　“最近引进的新机械涉及传统的、双重创新设计的过滤嘴的生产，包括高速弹性双重及三重结合机器，生产Sensation™过滤嘴的高速机器，生产特殊过滤嘴的机器（包括醋酸盐纤维和ROA型），先进的联机过滤棒质量检查设备。”

　　全球机器战略是建立在菲尔创纳2005年为鼓励员工提交改进建议，分享最佳技术的持续的改进计划基础之上。

Filtrona Gears up to Market Trends by Implementing Global Machine Strategy

　　Filtrona Filter Products has implemented a global machine strategy to optimise its machine technologies through upgrades and investment in new state-of-the-art machinery.

　　The global strategy has been introduced following a comprehensive analysis of market trends and a review of the company's machine technologies, encompassing hundreds of machines across nine production sites.

　　"In an increasingly dynamic market, it is essential that we have the production capabilities and capacity to not only meet the current needs of our customers but also their future requirements," said global operations director, Martin Dudley.

　　"In recent years, the tobacco market has seen an increased focus on quality which has led many customers to tighten their quality and functional tolerances," the company said in a press note.

　　"This trend is set to continue alongside a move towards smaller quantity orders across a wider range of specifications…"
 
　　"As part of the strategy, Filtrona has enhanced its capability to produce innovative special filters by investing in a number of leading machine technologies. It has also implemented a programme to upgrade existing machines, where specifications require it, with modern high-speed machines featuring enhanced automation and process control."
 
　　"New machinery recently introduced covers the production of conventional, dual and innovatively designed filters, including high-speed flexible dual and triple combining machines, high-speed machinery for Sensation™ filters, new machinery to produce special filters (including Shaped Acetate & ROA), and state-of-the-art on-line filter rod quality inspection equipment."
 
　　The global machine strategy builds on the foundations of Filtrona's continuous improvement programme, which was introduced in 2005 to encourage employees to submit improvement suggestions and share best-practice techniques. Enditem
