Production line capacity enhancement and reconstruction integration services.

basic information

This document introduces a project aimed at enhancing the production line capacity for vertical washing machines at a major home appliance manufacturer. The project involved aging equipment supplied by another company over 20 years ago, under extremely challenging conditions where no equipment drawings or specifications were available for the line expansion and process addition. The project involved a comprehensive renewal and extension of three large lines: the internal drum assembly line, the resin × stainless steel assembly line, and the outer panel assembly line. Design engineers and site managers visited the location to disassemble and observe the equipment, and by utilizing 3D scanners, they were able to reconstruct the drawings from scratch, achieving the modifications and expansions. Additionally, in a site with a maximum of 60 personnel from multiple companies, thorough project management and on-site coordination were implemented, resulting in adherence to the schedule and a smooth startup without confusion. Through integration capabilities across machinery, electrical systems, controls, and robotics, numerous challenges such as optimizing transport routes and control adjustments were systematically resolved. The customer highly valued the ability to initiate the project from a state of having zero drawings, as well as the careful adjustment responses, which further strengthened the trust relationship and led to future production increases and new projects.

Detailed information

• 

  【Enhancement and Extension of Aging Production Lines】 - Equipment that has been in operation for over 20 years with no remaining drawings or specifications - Desire to increase production capacity while avoiding a complete overhaul - Aim to add processes and extend lines while utilizing existing equipment In manufacturing sites facing these challenges, we will reconstruct designs from physical inspections to achieve maximum capacity improvement with minimal updates.

  "Increase in Production Capacity through Simultaneous Expansion of Three Lines for Top-Loading Washing Machines" At a major home appliance manufacturer's production facility for top-loading washing machines, we simultaneously extended and added processes to three lines: internal drum assembly, resin and stainless steel assembly, and outer panel assembly. By managing a mixed workforce of up to 60 people through project management, we adhered to the schedule without confusion. We rebuilt from a zero-drawing state, establishing a production increase system and enhancing customer trust.
