Introducing a case study of process improvement consulting for a major electronic components manufacturer.
I would like to introduce an example of process improvement that enhanced processing capability without compromising quality.
We provide consulting services for proposing and realizing optimal production systems, taking into account all elements related to manufacturing, such as equipment, materials, personnel, and environment. Electronic components are very small within production equipment, and due to the need for precision and low unit costs, manufacturing costs are determined by equipment costs, material costs, and labor costs. If processing capacity slows down, equipment costs will increase. We would like to introduce a case study of consulting for process improvement at a major electronic component manufacturer, where we aimed to improve processing capacity without compromising quality. [Challenge] When planning manufacturing costs, processing capacity was reduced to maintain quality, and the challenge was to raise processing capacity to the planned value. [Improvement Proposal] By increasing the overlap of actuator operations, we shortened product transfer time and raised processing capacity to the planned value. [Result] We were able to increase processing capacity by 10% to a maximum of 20%, which reduced equipment costs (manufacturing costs) and was greatly appreciated. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Our company has been focused on developing production equipment for electronic components and has been proposing and implementing solutions to various challenges faced by production factories. The production equipment for electronic components is characterized by high-reliability transport technology (high speed, high precision, and fine parts), which is one of our strengths. Transport technology is essential for production equipment, and improvements in this area can lead to various benefits. Do you have any of the following concerns? 1. I want to increase the equipment cycle time. 2. I want to further improve the defect rate. 3. I want to simplify product changeovers. 4. I want to make equipment maintenance easier. Additionally, even outside of transport technology: 5. I want to perform equipment maintenance but don't have the drawings (e.g., for cam mechanisms). 6. I want to change the layout of factory equipment, but it's difficult (in terms of time and manpower). We will propose and implement optimal solutions to these challenges.
