Cutting Cycle Times by 92%? Paramount Machine Shares Their Secret Sauce on The Gunn Show


Thursday 20 March 2025, 1:00:00 PM


Founded in 1995, Paramount Machine has grown exponentially, relocating four times to accommodate its expanding operations.

Now settled in a state-of-the-art, 30,000+ square-foot, climate-controlled facility in Salt Lake City, they employ over 40 full-time professionals dedicated to precision and quality. 
The team attributes their success to a relentless commitment to quality and innovation. Their collaboration with Datanomix, for instance, has revolutionized their production monitoring, leading to significant improvements in cycle times and overall efficiency.

The discussion also delves into Paramount’s strategic investments in advanced machinery. Their acquisition of the Tsugami SS327-5AX, a 32 mm, B-Axis Sliding Headstock Swiss-Type Lathe, exemplifies their forward-thinking approach. This machine enabled them to consolidate three separate machine cycles into one, reducing overall part cycle times by an astounding 92%.

Beyond technology, the conversation touches on Paramount’s culture of appreciation and leadership.

For those eager to hear the full conversation and gain insights into Paramount’s journey, this episode of The Gunn Show Podcast is a must-listen.
