- Process optimisation
1 – Examination of your project
- Understand the needs and issues involved in consultation of the part to be done
- Technical discussions between the different design offices and planning departments in order to optimize the technical-economic aspect of the part:
- Feasibility study and proposals for improvement
- Global approach depending on the part’s environment and industrial constraints
- Suggestions for alternative materials
- Simulation in fluid mechanics or materials
- Submission and validation of a commercial proposition
2 – Industrialisation review
This concerns the production of new parts, also known as first order review. When the process is run-in we go directly into series production mode.
- Industrialisation review
- Project launch review with a team from all departments: management, technical, sales, quality, supply chain, sales admin, production and planning
- Production implementation
- Production process validation
- Feedback following launch of the series
- Planning of the industrialisation follow-up tasks, along with the review
- Delivered with schedules for the customer
- Twice-weekly industrialisation review follow-up
3 – Production and series life
For every first order, initial samples are made and put to the customer for approval.
- Production:
- Bar-turning on ESCOMATIC lathes (Ø 2 to 9), single-spindle NC (Ø 4 to 51), multi-spindle cam controlled or NC (Ø 8 to 35)
- Centreless grinding in-feed and plunge, lapping
- Milling: special machines developed by our design office
- Finishing: sand-blasting, shot-peening
- Sorting: special machines developed by our design office
- Assembling
- Packing
- Preparation of initial samples
Customer relations management
- Analysis and taking into account the forecast,
- Inventory given to the customer,
- Proposals for productivity gains,
- Price control with revision depending on raw materials rates,
- Regular face-to-face or video-call updates,
- Mesure of customer satisfaction through interactive survey
… via extranet portals
- Order and forecast transmisssion.
- Pick-up request.
- Logistics paperwork: ASN.
- Sending of invoices and payment follow-up.
- Quality documents on-line: PPAP.
Process optimisation
- Ability to develop our own machines to meet customers’ capability needs.
- Find productivity gains.
Tracabilty
- Ensured throughout the process thanks to a patented system which reduces handling of the tracability files.
Inspections
Done at all process steps: setting-up, production, returns from sub-contracting and final inspection.
