The 12 members of the PreMade Project aim to work together to develop a methodology and toolkit to assist in the deployment of lean manufacturing principles
The decision has resulted in tremendous efficiencies in manpower, costs and overall productivity.
"Our clients include many of the world's leading automotive manufacturers who demand increased quality, decreased lead time and reduced costs," explained Keita Horiba, Director of Sanyo Machine Works.
"Today customers insist that line builders not only deliver a production system, but also submit simulation data and results in a virtual environment.

DELMIA has given Sanyo an edge, as we are now able to present our proposals using the latest simulation technology." Sanyo is deploying DELMIA software to check for collisions of robots and welding guns, validate tact time, and simulate an entire line prior to building the actual production line systems ordered by its clients.
In this way, Sanyo is able to present system proposals to its clients from the beginning of the concept stage.
By installing DELMIA in the company HQ in Aichi Prefecture, Japan, as well as at its subsidiaries, Sanyo Machine America and Sanyo Canadian Machine Works, Sanyo has created a collaborative, advanced engineering environment for world-wide operations.
In addition, the products' easy customisation capability via DELMIA's Graphical Simulation Language and the fact that DELMIA is used by most of the global automotive manufacturers, were both key factors in Sanyo Machine Works' choice of DELMIA.
Sanyo Machine Works was established in 1945 and is a leader in design, development and production of automatic assembly and welding line systems.
Its production systems are developed as a total package, including both the hardware and the software.
This technology-driven company has broad client bases in automotive and household electronic manufacturers throughout the world.
The Sanyo Group has production sites in Japan, the US and Canada, and has been certified as meeting the international quality assurance standards, both QS-9000 and ISO9001 in the US and ISO 9001 in Japan.
