How M-System strives to meet delivery deadlines

We have been overcoming difficulties of parts procurement!

supporting high-mix, low-volume production

Requirements to meet delivery deadlines:

1. Securing a parts stock with sufficient margin
2. Developing a strong relationship of trust with parts manufacturers
3. Establishing countermeasures to cope with difficulties of parts procurement caused by parts discontinuation or natural disasters

M-System has been taking necessary steps to ensure that all the three requirements are fulfilled.

Production system
that ensures the same products are made continuously available

The greatest difficulty to keep production of the electronic devices is either by due to the interruption of electronic parts supply caused by accident or disaster, change in regulation or parts discontinued.
We do not easily stop manufacturing products once released in the market, without trying to supply compatible products of equal or better performance to replace with, because we believe it is an important responsibility as the world's leading manufacturer to continue serving people who maintain the performance of process control systems.

Electrical parts outage and historical background

When obtaining the electrical parts becomes difficult, we tend to think that it is due to the one-sided situation of the parts manufacturers, but it is not always the case.
The designing change was necessary in some cases to comply with the RoHS directive, a part of the global environment activities.
Also, there were cases where obtaining the parts was difficult when the parts factory was damaged by the Great East Japan Earthquake or when the factories in Thailand were flooded.

Number of times of designing changes by the parts outage

Number of times of designing changes by the parts outage

If we cannot avoid supply outage of electronic parts, we will cover it by the designing speed.

If the electronic parts will be discontinued, we will receive an advance notice from the parts manufacturer.
As soon as the notice is received, the Design Dept. will calculate the time required for designing change.
The Production Control Dept. will calculate the volume of shipping within the designing period and order the necessary quantity to the parts manufacturer.
If it involves circuit changes, we will need to redo many processes including evaluation test.
However, M-System has its own test facilities such as the anechoic chamber and the shielded room certified and registered by the official body to perform the change tasks efficiently at any time.
