ARC Group Worldwide, Inc. is a global advanced manufacturing service provider focused on accelerating speed to market for its customers. ARC provides a holistic set of precision manufacturing solutions, from design and prototyping through full run production. These solutions include metal injection molding, plastic injection molding, clean room plastic injection molding, prototyping [parts and tools], and production tooling. Further, ARC utilizes technology to improve automation in manufacturing through robotics, software and process automation, and lean manufacturing to improve efficiency.
ARC believes the methodologies and systems of how products get manufactured will change materially over the next 10-20 years, due to technology such as automation, robotics, software, artificial intelligence and cheaper energy prices. ARC’s objective is to be an accelerator of this technology adoption in traditional mass-production. The resulting change will be a world where lead times are reduced, supply chains are localized, and customers get to market in a quicker and more efficient way than they do today.
