Boost your profitability and product quality with one-piece flow

Boost your profitability and product quality with one-piece flow

The grand idea behind one-piece flow is that each metal component is individually processed and subsequently moved from one workstation to the next with no "work in progress" or human involvement. A lean manufacturing system, such as a one-piece flow, guarantees a seamless streamlining of production and a flawless product outcome.

Get an optimized production with a one-piece flow

A one-piece flow production setup not only reassures an efficient and streamlined product. It brings along multiple advantages to automize your production and implement this type of lean manufacturing setup. 

  • 0% manufacturing risk 

  • 100% security in supply

  • Improved product quality 

  • Inventory reduction

  • Reduced waste 

  • Reduction of costs

  • Improved options for scalability

  • Quick turnaround

Below we have illustrated how our manufacturing line processes components in a one-piece flow setup. Completely streamlined, our components are processed at each station and ceaselessly carried on to the next production step - all happening in one continuous flow.

 
 

A production setup tailored to your components? 

When working with a one-piece flow manufacturing setup, the CNC machines. 

The entire setup is based on our superior production line philosophy M·Sys™, founded on the principles of Industri 4.0 or the Internet of Things (IoT). With M·Sys™, we can ensure ultra-precise, repeatable, and scalable manufacturing at a low and flexible cost through our fully automated production setup with no human involvement. 

The essence of a one-piece flow production is then to ensure that the manufacturing setup is specifically designed to process a specific component. This makes it easy to ramp up the production and produce components at any desired scalability. 

From there on, we can produce up to 500.000 components, making it an attractive method for companies that need large-scale production and security in supply.

Fully automated observation 24/7 

When milling, turning, and surface-treating metal components in our cutting-edge manufacturing setup, we always ensure that each product lives up to the product specifications defined in the project handover. Our fully automated manufacturing setup, M·Sys™, is designed to screen each component as it travels through the manufacturing line. With our lean, one-piece flow manufacturing setup, we guarantee a flawless and risk-free result as we can detect any component flaws during production and better them before continuing the manufacturing process. 

Our fully automatic manufacturing setup runs around the clock. It not only operates, it thinks. With intelligent software, we have encoded the relevant specifications into our CNC machines, after which the production units know scrupulously how to manufacture components and how the desired product outcome should look. We have years of experience with this type of quality assurance - and it is not only efficient. It is accurate every single time.

Watch below as we take a deep dive into our one-piece flow production setup.
