Interactive electronic documentation, multi-language work instructions and robust variant management controls are just some of the lean principles driving our quality-controlled production lines.
We have considerable experience of establishing lean lines to produce complex mechatronic assemblies. These assemblies can be resourced by between two and ten operators depending on live customer demand. We operate 24-hour replenishment through line-side KanBan-based pull systems which are supported by bar-code tracking to provide real-time operational information.
Many of the mechatronic assemblies produced by ESCATEC require some form of wire or cable interconnections between boards and sub-assemblies. These can be via cable looms and harnesses or point-to-point wiring. We are often called on to produce machines that require critical cable routing, so that the moving parts may function safely. In addition, we also undertake electrical wiring of switch and instrument panels, as well as 19" rack systems and sophisticated control cabinets.
When required, skilled, time-served wiremen use customers' technical drawings, internally created build packs and test specifications to develop fully integrated rackmount solutions. A high level of accuracy means we capture every detail of the control cabinet configuration and hardware, meaning our services are ideal for OEMs looking for multiple identical electrical installations. Any metalwork modifications to the control cabinets themselves can be carried out in-house and our testing capabilities comprise of continuity, high voltage flash and PAT testing.
Software upload, verification, and execution is carried out within the scope of ESCATEC’s robust revision control system. We understand the importance of traceability and can provide historical records of both hardware and software revisions for specific products that we build when requested.
Why testing should be at the heart of everything you do
