An industrialization optimized for performance and quality

Thanks to this rigorous approach, JTEKT Column Systems France guarantees a smooth transition from prototype to industrial production, controlling costs, deadlines and quality. Our traceability guarantees the regulatory compliance of products and a high level of reactivity in analysis and process management.

Key steps

1. Definition of processes and means of production

We analyze the technical needs specific to each part in order to:

– Define the appropriate manufacturing process (machining, assembly, control).
– Identify the necessary industrial means (machines, tools, workstations).
– Elaborate the manufacturing range, from the rough to the finished part.

2.Simulation tools and advanced calculations

We use cutting-edge software to anticipate and master manufacturing:

– CATIA for the design of specific tools.
– FORGE to simulate material deformations and anticipate deviations after forging.
– Mechanical calculation tools to validate the transformation from the raw axis to the final axis.

3.Taking into account economic constraints

Each solution is rigorously evaluated to:

– Respect the budget allocated to the project.
– Optimize cycle times, material consumption and production costs.
– Ensure industrial profitability.

4. Establishment and choice of industrial means

We select and implement the necessary machines at each step: machining, assembly, quality control.
The implementation in the workshop is optimized to ensure a smooth and secure production flow.

5.Manufacture and assembly

Our lines are developed to prepare:

– The integration of the new axes in our spinning lines.
– The complete assembly of shafts and column systems.
– Quality control at each step of the process, to ensure a compliant product.

Our industrialization approach

Industrialization is a key step that ensures the transformation of design into reliable, efficient and economical production.
We define the processes, choose the appropriate means and guarantee quality throughout manufacturing.
