Trial production results
It is necessary to carry out evaluation through trial production in order to clarify problems before parts are made into the final product. We listen to the voices of our customers, such as “This is what I want to do” and “This is what I am struggling with” during development stages. We offer support to determine the optimal plating specifications in order to maximize functionality of parts included in the final product.
Initial product development stage
Plating trial production of laboratory scale is carried out by hands.
It is not necessary to purchase large amounts of expensive materials as we can correspond to small lots. We can also handle short term requests.
Mass production trial stage
Even if there is no problem in the beaker scale, the same result may not be obtained when continuous plating process and equipment are established.
Nishihara Rikoh can manage start-ups in-house, from designing and manufacturing of plating equipment to mass production. By making the pilot line meet the requires for mass production, specific product characteristics and process evaluation are possible.
Process evaluation
We carry out detailed verifications at each stage from trial to mass production. This makes the validation data consistent. Feedback of data collected through trial production is contributing to the smooth transition to mass production.
Although trial productions are not only success, we will respond to your request with optimal proposals. Even if it is difficult to meet, we will develop technology, looking for ways which can satisfy customers.
