Case study of introducing processed products: Unusual parts request from an agricultural machinery manufacturer.

We will introduce a case of producing an extremely rare part that is generally not seen!

We would like to introduce a case where an agricultural machinery manufacturer was perplexed by the request for "quality stability" and "stable supply" of a super rare part known as the handling cylinder. From the sales know-how and information accumulated in our company, we caught wind that a processing company in Shikoku was manufacturing similar parts, and we approached that processing company for consultation. Upon conveying the current situation, we received advice that to enhance quality stability in mass production, dedicated jigs should be prepared. We communicated this to the agricultural machinery manufacturer and produced a prototype. It was decided to respond with automated production using robots. Following the advice, we manufactured dedicated jigs based on those specifications. Additionally, considering the transportation efficiency from Shikoku to our Shimane sales office, we created a "two-story transport rack." The prototype performed well, achieving an astonishing quality stability with a handling blade entry and exit amount of less than 0.02 mm. We successfully cleared the challenges of "quality stability" and "stable supply," and by redesigning the part and automating production, we also succeeded in reducing costs. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

basic information

【Request Details】 ■Product Name: Akagi Dou ■Request: "Quality stability" and "stable supply" of the extremely rare part, Akagi Dou ■Current Situation: The quality of the parts is unstable because craftsmen are making each piece by hand.
