Production Technology
When performance becomes a disease
Never before has the employment market offered as many opportunities and chances as it
does today – but also as many risks. Thanks to
modern technology, fewer and fewer people
can or have to produce more and more. The
burden on each individual increases – too
much so for some. They cannot withstand the
pressure to deliver peak performance everywhere and all the time. The result is burnout;
they are burned out and suffer from intensive
mental and physical exhaustion. Fear of failure, frustration or imbalance dominate their
emotions. Headaches, sleeping problems, gastrointestinal disorders or even cardiovascular
problems plague those affected.
What can be done if you are suffering from
burnout? Seek professional help. While there
are many things you can solve yourself, some
things you cannot.

HAMILTON – Swiss virtues “made in USA” –
company history, outstanding vocational
training, partnership with Brütsch/Rüegger
Tools
In focus
WorldSkills Calgary
Brütsch/Rüegger Tools also equipped the Swiss
champion in the polymechanic discipline of CNC
turning with select tools for WorldSkills Calgary.
Fabian Vogelbacher with turned workpiece Company
providing training: MOWAG GmbH, Kreuzlingen
No company holidays
at Brütsch/Rüegger Tools!
Even during the summer months, we will be
available every day with the excellent service you
have grown accustomed to. We sincerely wish
you an enjoyable, relaxing holiday and a return
in good health!
We hope that many of the 37 Swiss candidates will once again have cause to celebrate in Calgary ...
Tomorrow's economic activity in Switzerland is also at stake
The WorldSkills trade world championships being held in Calgary, Canada in September 2009 offer unique
opportunities for the exchange of experiences and observations regarding
competency standards in industry,
trades and services for the global
economy. In addition to professional
competition, two “by-products” have
a sustained effect: The transfer of
specialised knowledge at the expert
level and the effect of peak performance on the breadth of vocational
training. Even though it “only” deals
with peak work performance, this
event deserves our attention along
with the young tradespeople who
are giving it their all!
Comparison of vocational training
systems
Our dual vocational training system is on the test
stand in international comparisons. It must be in
good shape since the top rankings of past years – including best European nation in Japan 2007 – confirm the fitness of Swiss vocational training in one of
the few truly informative comparisons in the world!
Gold medals for countries like Korea and Japan
along with top rankings for emerging nations such
as Brazil indicate that different roads can lead to
Rome. Vocational training needs transparency in
terms of education and practical experience. In addition to basic vocational training, higher education
programmes also need to be available. This is where
vocational baccalaureates and universities of applied
sciences have opened doors. The apprenticeship for
life is dead – long live vocational training as a platform for outstanding job performance or a springboard for subsequent adventures in education!

Giga-event
Brütsch/Rüegger Tools as sponsor
The WorldSkills trade world championships are a superlative event. Calgary is providing part of the
Olympic venues, the infrastructure of all training
centres as well as all student accommodations. Holidays in Canada are being postponed by a week so
that 200 000 students can attend the competitions.
As the leading tool specialist, we are by no means
indifferent about tomorrow's economic activity in
Switzerland and Liechtenstein. This is why the tools
and measurement instruments we are providing to
the candidates constitute a sound investment. We
are also sending a message to our customers, the
companies that further the cause of vocational training: In us they have a strong partner who understands and supports their efforts. We would like to
wish “our” eight candidates (see illustration) all the
best in far-off Canada. We hope that the young
tradespeople and all those helping out in any way –
including ourselves – will benefit!
For more about the trade world championships
from a Swiss perspective, visit www.swiss-skills.ch.
The event site address is www.worldskills.com.
Powerful helpers in Switzerland
11 brand new MORI SEIKI processing centres – at a
cost of half a million francs each – stand ready just
for the candidates from 21 countries participating in
CNC milling at the world championships for polymechanics. Without the Federation as the leading promoter along with industry, trade association and
employer sponsorships and droves of expert volunteers, the Swiss delegation of one hundred with 37
candidates from many different trades would not be
able to carry out its mission!

The story of HAMILTON Bonaduz AG
starts with a groundbreaking invention developed in 1947 by company
founder Clark Hamilton in his garage
in the USA: The microlitre syringe.
In 1966, he launched the production
of medical syringes in Bonaduz.
43 years later – in these days – part
of the staff of 550 has moved into
the highly modern production facility. This was the seventh expansion
over the decades. The company with
its successful development efforts
and optimum vertical integration
is granted a lot of freedom by the
owning family. Profits flow back
into operations as investments. Visitors get the impression that the
American “think big” approach and
Swiss precision have entered into a
successful symbiosis.
HAMILTON Manufacturing
Current workplace safety product range
Reference number 06.07
HAMILTON Manufacturing, the Brütsch/Rüegger
Tools partner within the operations in Bonaduz,
is an independent business unit. It supplies all
divisions of HAMILTON Bonaduz AG and HAMILTON MEDICAL AG. But it does not have a cushy
number; after all, it is in regular competition
with external suppliers for mechanical parts and
components. Maintaining an attractive price
structure requires some production technology
innovations: These days a Toyoda dual unit of the
latest generation is being commissioned in the
bright new production facility. 42 palettes with
360 tools each are instantly available within the
machine. This allows small series to be produced
practically just in time while the machine only
needs to be set up once.
