CASE in the era of automotive wiring harness mission to pay attention to product manufacturing, changing product manufacturing ~
CASE time needed for automotive wiring harness
Sumitomo electric group mobile core business is in the field of automotive wiring harness, is responsible for the development and production of group subsidiary - sumitomo denso co., LTD (hereinafter referred to as "sumitomo denso").Auto harness is an almost entirely made of artificial "labor-intensive products," this is the biggest characteristic.Its production network about 30 countries all over the world, the total number of employees up to about 230000 people.It determines the quality of the key "workers" techniques and skills.But because the wire and production areas and personnel, the quality of the products is also likely uneven.From long ago but sumitomo electric group launched a challenge to the subject.The goals of the group is the global unification of the highest quality, to achieve this goal, sumitomo denso through "shiny activity (shiny heart, action, technology, equipment and factory)" realized "shiny", this became the high trust for global auto makers, a global share No. 1.
"In the era of the CASE, the evolution of the automotive wiring harness their essential.A few years ago, we demand for lightweight car body, has developed "aluminium wire bundle".Vehicle overall reduced about 12%, fuel-efficient and at the same time, also help to carbon dioxide emissions.I hope that in the CASE of business, also can like these measures, the required products provide society with The Times ".Sumitomo denso (on behalf of President banned service paint Tian xian),
As stated in paint Tian, CASE of movements for the automotive wiring harness has brought the new situation.Electric cars, for example.Can carry large current cable is necessarily complex composed of thousands of root bare wire cable, its diameter also have corresponding increase, this need to be able to avoid disconnection issues, highly reliability a long cable.In addition, in order to realize "Connected" with high speed communication and large capacity, the signal is high frequency.The key is the connector.It's need to optimize the shape of the connector, to ensure the high frequency signal through smoothly.To sum up, the CASE of automotive wiring harness to be reckoned with.
Business model changes, the turning point of product manufacturing
Paint Tian pointed out that, on the other hand, automotive wiring harness their product manufacturing also ushered in the great reversal point.
"Insufficient due to the global semiconductor and new crown outbreak, the influence of the previous business model is no longer applicable.To break through this dilemma, we implemented a "origin pin" strategy.Like the United States use of automotive wiring harness is not produced in the association of southeast Asian nations (asean), but which are found in North America.But there is a big problem.In terms of features, automotive wiring harness is almost entirely made of 'people' hands so its quality personnel skills around."Tian (paint)
So far, the company is through ascension in employees' skills, knowledge and insight, to ensure that "the world unified the highest quality", including "shiny movement" and the symbol of the down-to-earth skills upgrading.This is because the automotive wiring harness production "automation" was once considered impossible.But in order to solve the issue, the development team set out to "automation" of related measures.One of the results can be automatically set to cut line pressing "complete set of assignments.A prerequisite for the manual operation period is 1.5 days, and "complete homework" front period can be greatly shortened to 2 hours.In addition, the company also automate the landmark.
"We are through the 'e - STEALTHW/H ®' assembly automation is realized.In addition, we also plan to e - STEALTHW/H ® and miniaturization of wire automatic assembly system together, to change the wire shape, on the premise of less item, realize many kinds of specifications.Though some local automation, but I hope to push the generalization of these measures and equipment, committed to the local consumption 'and' local production BCP (business continuity plan), and other measures, develop products to create the new world."Tian (paint)
At the same time, sumitomo electric group is also very attention to CASE time of product manufacturing.
By advancing DX, change the product manufacturing field
In addition, advancing the DX could significantly change the business model."First of all, I want to implement digital design business.So far, we have been relying on technology and skills, but to shorten the front stage, we must promote the digital.We use 3 dcad and VR tools to promote the digital.Hope in the 10 years since 2030, to achieve 100% digital.In addition, Vietnam is obtained excellent results in the practical manufacturing one of the countries.In order to let the global employees to learn from the best practices, we have been trying to analysis work and data, to realize the optimal layout by AI.More important is the production management.We hope that the unified management order, production, inventory and delivery, and other processes, "visualization" to help reduce waste and improve efficiency.Such a move will change the existing business mechanism, strengthen the enterprise's sustainable development.I think this is the CASE response times demand of one of the manufacturing related measures."Tian (paint)
Sumitomo electric group of automotive wiring harness business while maintaining the highest market share, to supply responsibility at the same time, with the actual CASE specification standards of technical strength and product manufacturing business, continue to create high additional value.
