Commitment.01<\/span>In-house production for “working responsibly”<\/h2>

At SunMax\u2019s Hokuriku Plant, “Design and Development Team” and “Production Team” work day in and day out to improve their technical capabilities. They design mechanical and electrical equipment by utilizing the information obtained from hearings with customers by sales representatives.
Based on this, the operations of processing, manufacturing, purchasing, and assembling each part are in-house production at the plant, which leads to “stable quality.” This is our system for “working responsibly” for all customers who use SunMax products.\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/div>

Commitment.02<\/span>Design and Development Team: Embracing technical challenges<\/h2>
\"Design<\/div>

The fabrication process starts with a review of the product concept. The team reviews the product\u2019s purpose and application and creates design drawings. Sometimes they fabricate a prototype and repeatedly evaluate its structure and safety before applying their findings to the design. In electrical design process, considering customer’s usability, they design hardware components in the control panel and software such as programming. The team also creates approval drawings, including outline drawings and customer requirements, as well as documentation (operation procedures, part lists, etc.) for submission to the customer. We pride ourselves on creating drawings and documentation that are easy for customers to understand.<\/p>

At our Lab and Testing Room, the Design and Development Team plays the lead role in installing machines to prepare for the tests, conducting those tests in the customer\u2019s presence, and cleaning the machines after the tests. We also take responsibility for these tasks, which are prone to be taken for granted. This approach is the most important element that backs up our technical capabilities.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Commitment.03<\/span>SunMax quality: Found in every aspect of each machine and in our fine-grained service<\/h2>

Our goal is that customers will find SunMax\u2019s dedication to excellence and quality in every aspect of our food processing machines. For example, necessary parts are fabricated entirely in-house, including laser cutting of frame materials, deburring, bending work, welding, lathe machining, milling, and drilling. Machines are assembled from finished sheet metal, processed parts, and purchased parts. Then they undergo a completion inspection. The Hokuriku Plant carries out a variety of inspections to verify that each machine is free of defects and that it has been built to specifications. Once the customer has seen the machine (after the inspections but before shipment), we make corrections and changes as necessary. SunMax quality means we then handle everything ourselves, including delivery of the machine, installation, test production at the customer\u2019s facility, machine problems, and modifications.<\/p><\/div><\/div>
