Company Background

Mr Happy Lim, started Premier Precision Industry Pte Ltd (PPI) more than 70 years ago. The company was set up in Singapore in 1996 and specialises in precision plastic injection moulding and has operations in Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia China, & Philippines.

Mr Happy Lim had the opportunity to attend Singapore Polytechnic’s AMLead Programme Nov 2022 in Germany to have the first-hand opportunity to learn from the Best-in-Class on the possibilities of i4.0 technology adoption, to improve productivity and competitiveness.

He was impressed with the range of i4.0 technology applications for manufacturing, how it transformed manufacturing activities and how people capabilities and jobs should be developed and designed.
