PRODUCT AND PROCESS DEVELOPMENT

As soon as we receive a quotation request, the technical feasibility of a product becomes a focus. To deliver rapid, well-thought out and reliable feedback, every new project is evaluated by a cross-functional team. This includes analyzing factors such as project feasibility, production time and place as much as how a potential further development and optimization of the product or process might look.

At Härter, experienced employees support the customer’s development team in engineering and optimizing new products according to the principle of ‘design to cost’. In addition to considering the product, the production method, material and coating are also taken into consideration as much as manufacturability in regards to future increasingly strict contamination requirements. The goal of our engineering team is to optimize the product as well as develop the best possible production processes in order to improve the quality of the product while also saving on manufacturing costs.

You can only rely on your project being efficiently realized if the work steps are thought through beforehand. At Härter, that’s why we assign a competent project team to every single process step:

• Selection of raw materials
• Definition of material use and combination
• Determination of the fabrication steps and layout of the production processes
• Definition of component-suited packaging and logistics planning

Geared to and building on engineering and process planning, Härter has the competence to develop and manufacture all tools and special machines. That means that you receive complete engineering services from one source and can be reassured that the perfect equipment for realizing your project is available.

New technologies, new materials, new methods: Technical development is meteoric in parts. In accordance with the Continuous Improvement Process (CIP), we permanently optimize our production processes. Naturally, our insights from CIP are integrated into our new developments – both in terms of process and technologies as well as in regards to AQP (advance quality planning).
