  • ETN Project - ETN means "equal to new." Helped save the company millions of dollars by saving and restoring old hemlock cages from past systems so that they can be used in new systems instead of buying new ones.
  • Cardboard Elimination Project - This project included getting rid of all the cardboard that was located on the test floor and first came about because machines would fail due to bad air quality which came from deterioration of the cardboard over time, along with a new process so that this can be avoided in the future.
