The Secrets of Ordering to Achieve Shortened Delivery Times and Stable Supply of Cast Products for the Manufacturing Industry
A consistent system from mold making to processing and assembly prevents delays in delivery. We reveal our methods for "predicting delivery times" through the use of 3D printers and overseas procurement networks.
In the field of equipment manufacturing, delays in the delivery of cast parts can lead to stoppages on the assembly line, resulting in significant losses. The instability in delivery responses is rooted in the complexities and fragmentation of the processes involved. The fundamental cause lies in the fact that multi-stage processes such as pattern making, prototyping, heat treatment, external processing, and inspection are dispersed among various companies, leading to an increase in management workload. The Hinode Group addresses these issues by providing a one-stop solution that covers everything from mold making to casting, processing, assembly, and logistics, thereby alleviating the management burden and lead time challenges for our customers. - Prototyping: By utilizing short lead-time prototyping processes such as 3D printing, we shorten the prototyping lead time. - Integrated production: We complete the entire process from casting to painting, precision processing, assembly, and logistics within the group, improving procurement efforts and lead times. - Global procurement network: With a diverse procurement network both domestically and internationally, we propose optimal solutions from various materials and manufacturing processes. If you want to minimize the risk of delivery delays and ensure stable material procurement, the Hinode Group, capable of providing a seamless solution, is the best choice. Hinode strongly supports your procurement operations from material proposals to shape optimization.
