The Emerging Production Challenges

This Mexican manufacturer, known for its superior craftsmanship and quality products, faced an unprecedented challenge. During the production of 4140 steel pinions, they encountered issues such as inaccurate dimensions, insufficient material strength, and unqualified material composition. These problems not only reduced product yield but also increased production costs and uncertainty in delivery timelines.

Exploring the Root of the Problem

After a thorough examination of their production process, the manufacturer identified the root of the problem: the quality and stability of the raw materials. Specifically, inaccurate dimensions were attributed to loose dimensional tolerances in the raw materials; insufficient material strength was linked to improper heat treatment; and unqualified material composition was due to chemicals not meeting standard specifications.

The Supplier’s Dilemma

Upon identifying the issues, the manufacturer attempted to communicate with their existing supplier for solutions. However, due to technical limitations and resource constraints, the supplier was unable to provide satisfactory resolutions. This forced the manufacturer to seek a new supplier to ensure the smooth operation of their production line and stability of product quality.
