Haas Automation's U.S. success
Haas Automation, Inc. in the United States in October 2000 produced a total of 608 machining center, breaking the company in January 1998 set the monthly record of 521 units, said that this is also the world's machine tool manufacturing the highest monthly record. How can create such amazing miracle? Let us look at the company's development, manufacturing, quality, and several other aspects of the clear.
1. Haas Development
1983, including the current president from the three individuals, including Gene Haas founded Haas Automation, Inc., the principal manufacturing economical and reliable machine tool products. Although there were only three, but produced an innovative first HA5C automatic programmable collet chuck type dividing head, mainly for high-precision machining position, and achieved great success. In the subsequent four years, Haas has been expanding and developing product variety, producing a wider range of options fully programmable control of the turntable, dividing heads and other machine tool accessories. Also in accordance with market demand, and constantly adjust the direction of product development, in 1987 produced the first vertical machining centers VF? 1, complete milling, boring, drilling, tapping and other processing, and the price is very competitive This was a big overseas market impact. Since then, most of the industrial sector authorities and traders are all American-made machining centers sell for less than 50 thousand U.S. dollars skeptical, the company did in fact Haas. Because of this, in 1987 after 9 years, Haas's VF? 1-type vertical machining center 11,000 units sold in the world. Technology development today has never suspected this level, because most machine manufacturers can now produce about 50 thousand U.S. dollars a vertical machining center. ?
After nearly 18 years of development, today's Haas Company has a staff of 700 people, mainly produces a full range of vertical machining centers, horizontal machining centers, CNC lathes and rotary table products. Haas has sold 24,000 CNC machine tools, more than 30,000 units turntable, the machine tool shipments surpassed the United States on any one manufacturer. Haas Company has developed into today's modern machine tool manufacturing base in the United States, one of the world is produced in large-scale machine tool manufacturer. ?
2. Haas manufacturing
To strengthen the capacity to continuously introduce reliable, low cost of new machines, Haas willing to invest millions of dollars the company acquired the advanced processing equipment and flexible manufacturing systems. In the modern workshop, from various parts of the process, to detect components of the assembly, assemble, test, packaging, everything is orderly. Workshop extensive use of automatic loading device, pallet exchange devices, robots feeding device, computer integrated management techniques; machined parts production can be implemented 24 hours a day, some of them may apply 16 hours of unattended machining; for finishing horizontal machining center work area, such as stacking database has been completely automated. ?
In Haas's workshop, each about 4 sets of production equipment in Taiwan, there is a product of their own, which also explains Haas to fully trust their reliability and accuracy. To ensure product quality and manufacturing precision, all the key components are Haas's own CNC machining with a proprietary out, millionth-inch accuracy can be guaranteed. ?
Haas's extensive use of various manufacturing systems and dedicated work area; from 20 Taiwan Hitachi Seiki HG630 Horizontal machining centers of the six flexible manufacturing systems (FMS); configured the delivery tray 256 and robotic feeding system. Can process 400 different parts, each new product in this process there are more than 120 kinds of parts. There are also 5 units from the Hitachi Seiki HG400 Horizontal Machining Center configuration consisting of 64 pallets finishing areas; Toshiba and Niigata from 6 sets of large horizontal machining center with 10 spare tray each station flexible manufacturing cell consisting of (FMC); by the 11 sets of gantry machine work area consisting of five surface for workpiece machining; by the 12 sets of flat ground, some internal and external precision grinding machines, CNC gear grinding and screw grinding machine, precision gearhobbing machine comprising the work of district. ?
3. The quality of Haas
Quality is the life. Haas company to ensure product quality, a series of measures. Haas entered the company's employees, regardless of how many of his previous experience, the way need to be trained according to Haas, the end of training to be tested and graded to ensure the appointment qualifications. In manufacturing, the first start from the materials, manufacturing Haas CNC machine tools used in cast iron, designed by Haas himself, and casting foundry in the United States. Haas company in a month to handle about 900t of cast iron, cast iron has been sorting and are now assigned to the productive sectors. Consistency of material quality, to ensure the high quality of Haas machine tools and high-performance foundation. Second, in the areas of quality control measures indoor temperature, with a variety of high-end coordinate measuring machines and a variety of measuring and analyzing, in a workshop process to go through all the parts are a wide range of quality control testing. Purchased parts must undergo strict performance tests. ?
Quality assurance tool assembly is the most critical step. In the Haas company, dedicated to every Haas machine tool assembly of experts are assembled into sophisticated products, Haas machine tools the important parts (such as gears, tool, spindle parts and CNC controllers, etc.) are assembled at the Haas factory inspection , Department of loading area divided into turret assembly, electrical assembly area and the spindle assembly assembly district. In the assembly area to achieve 24-hour test run unattended, the assembly of a CNC machine cycle only five days, including air operation, testing, driver testing and packaging of the cutting tests before shipment. Haas produces all products, including vertical of work centers, horizontal machining centers, lathes, rotary table, CNC five-axis milling machine and so the assembly assembly work area. There are also specialized in the delivery area for the service of a variety of spare parts for timely and comprehensive services for the user. ?
Haas company has more than 100 design engineers, Haas machine tools in the design and improvements. In Haas Company, the new design prototype assembly by the machine designer in person. This not only helps designers familiar with the manufacturing process, reasonable structure design process, and ensure each product can be manufactured in accordance with the requirements of designers. For each product design, manufacture and improvement, designers will be directly involved in the production, to design and manufacturing departments work closely together to effectively reduce the number of machine tool components, simplifying maintenance and improving reliability. CNC system with integrated structure designed for the host machine's operation is more simple and more reliable.
