[Method Change] Reduction of buffing process, examples of quality stabilization and improvement.
Reduction of mold costs and processes! Case study of a method change that solved customer issues.
Our company offers proposals and process design for quality improvement and cost reduction through the transition from cutting to pressing methods. We have a track record of solving various issues for customers in industries such as industrial machinery, machine tools, semiconductor manufacturing equipment, and construction components. ■ Customer's Challenge In the yarn feeding section of weaving machines (the area where the yarn and components come into contact), a buffing process is applied, but the angle of the buffing varies, leading to unstable quality. ■ Solution We shaped a smooth form through full shear processing and R-press processing, and then applied barrel processing for production. The results of a one-month running test at the customer's site were favorable. By eliminating the buffing process, we achieved the following: ◎ Lead time: Reduced by 50% ◎ Cost: Product unit price decreased by 5% We also have many other case studies available on our website. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
