[Case Study 008] Design proposals and prototypes in Japan, mass production and delivery in Thailand.

Responding to local procurement and local production driven by customers in a global framework!

We will introduce a development case of Advanex's "leaf springs, tension springs, and conical springs." At that time, the customer was in the process of relocating their production base to Thailand, and it was urgent to establish a system for procuring parts locally in order to achieve further cost reductions. Since the parts were for digital single-lens reflex cameras, it was essential to have high technical capabilities as a prerequisite. Additionally, the customer placed great importance on the speed required for development, necessitating a quick response to design changes. All the local technical staff were Thai, but the staff from the Kashiwazaki factory provided technical support, enabling smooth mass production. [Case Study] ■ Challenges - Development speed - A proper prototyping system in Japan and the ability to share that technology with Thailand - Ability to respond to repeated design changes ■ Industry: General home appliance manufacturer ■ Technology/Method: Multi-forming, pressing, coiling ■ Delivery Time: One year after development request ■ Final Product: Mechanism parts for digital cameras *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
