Lignon Brothers Manufacturing Co. contacted Humantech to help decrease on-the-job injures.

As a small-scale manufacturer, Ligon Brothers Manufacturing Co. (Almont, MI) was facing increased competition and unacceptable injury rates. In 1997, there were 47 recordable injuries. This signaled a need for a change. In particular, the K-137 transfer press workcell, with operators, had been reporting less than optimal production and 10 recordable injuries.
