What is high volume production?
High Volume production designates the manufacturing of a part or a product in large quantities, also known as mass production. It helps maintain a consistent quality of delivered products. It means making the same product over and over according to certain specifications, as designated by Henry Ford for manufacturing cars for Ford Motor Company. This type of manufacturing is popular in the aerospace, automotive, electronics, medical, and food industries.
With the high production volumes, designers must choose precisely the fabrication and assembling processes to gain in terms of cost and production time. Thus the development time might be longer than the average. This process also might require higher tooling costs for special machines and tools (special cutting tools, special machines for product assembly and testing, metrology inspection, etc.). Our polyvalent engineers will help you choose the most cost-effective production and assembly lines.
What are the advantages of using high volume production?
High Volume Production offers several advantages over unitary production :
- More accuracy:
Mass production provides more precise products. Regular periodic production process checks help prevent deviations from optimal manufacturing settings.
- Lower costs:
The automation of the production process leads to a lower price of the product.
- Less labor:
For higher volume productions, most operations are automated, which means fewer human interventions.
- More efficiency:
The production process will be more effective since there are fewer interventions than unitary production.
How can I prepare my product for high-volume production?
The process starts by designing the product to be manufactured. To make efficient use of this process, you must:
1. Product design:
Product design must encompass its ease of manufacturing and assembling. The designer must take into consideration the process that the manufacturer will use. For example, suppose the final product contains sheet metal parts. In that case, good nesting is crucial as it will minimize the scrap and help expedite the cutting process, thus drastically minimizing fabrication costs. At Norck, we have experts in design for manufacturing and assembly (DFMA), and we can assist you in analyzing and confirming your product’s design.
2. Defining the production quantities:
this factor will affect the choice of the production machinery, materials, and overall project costs.
3. Test and validate your product:
Making a prototype will help designers to validate the design, thus helping to prevent most of the issues found in production or assembly lines. Prototypes also help the clients get the right idea about your product, its functionalities, and its aspect. At Norck, we offer high-quality prototyping at a very competitive price.
