Mitsubishi Electric Factory Automation (Thailand) Organizes Off-Road Vehicle to Show Its Real Workpiece Production Potential by Mitsubishi Fiber Laser Machine.
Mr. Nopadol Kangsachat, General Manager of Mitsubishi Electric Factory Automation (Thailand) Co., Ltd., said, at the Intermach 2024 Exhibition, Mitsubishi brought an off-road vehicle for displaying in Mitsubishi’s booth for visitors to see the potential of fiber laser machine in cutting its various parts inside, such as, front bumper, rear bumper, or roof tent equipment, etc. Cut by Mitsubishi fiber laser machine, all these workpieces would come out smoothly, nicely, with good quality and high value added to them, as well. On this occasion, we would like to express our appreciation to Kijsiam Partworks Co., Ltd., a manufacturer of off-road vehicle parts and accessories under “GORILLA”, brand name for supporting us with a vehicle and accessories to be shown at Intermach 2024 Exhibition this time along with our 12,000-watt Mitsubishi GX-F Series fiber laser machine where the technology of which included the AI Assist system that would make the production process more intelligent.
Users’ Actual Confidences.
Mr. Narawut Kiattaweesup, Project Manager of Kijsiam Partworks Co., Ltd., revealed that, our company is a manufacturer of off-road vehicle accessories under “GORILLA” brand name and has been in business for 50 years. Our off-road vehicle accessories are sold domestically and exported to customers all over the world. At the Intermach 2024 Exhibition, we brought an off-road vehicle with accessories produced by our company for displaying in Mitsubishi’s booth this time. This is because of the reason that we have used Mitsubishi fiber laser machine to help in our working process in cutting workpieces into various shapes after the workpieces are designed. The advantage of Mitsubishi fiber laser machine is its reliability, durability, and ability to work 24 hours a day. In the event where the machine cannot perform its production function, Mitsubishi will dispatch its Working Team to help us with troubleshooting within 24 hours until the machine can return to its normal production once again. In addition, the machine is equipped with a working program which is easy to understand and, its cutting process, in particular, provides a very high precision.
“Mitsubishi fiber laser machine is operated with ARG eGo Air Cut and Nitrogen Cut. We have used both of them altogether because if we should use only one, it would probably make the production cost per piece increased while using both of them would make our production cost per piece lower. This is the advantage of Mitsubishi fiber laser machine.”
Mr. Kiattaweesup further added that, over in the past, the company’s down time was somewhat rather high. Once we have started to use Mitsubishi fiber laser machine, our down time has tremendously reduced. As a matter of fact, when we run into a machine down time, we may have to wait for spare parts or components for a period ranging from 7 to 10 days, but Mitsubishi has spare parts available for expediting to service us to reduce the down time for us by 1 to 2 days. Another favorable issue is that Mitsubishi’s Service Team will provide us with good advice in the case where the machine has an on-site problem. After making a contact, Mitsubishi Service Team, will give us answers and expeditiously solve such on-site problem. So, we have a lot of confidence in using Mitsubishi fiber laser machine. Currently, we have 5 Mitsubishi machines having been in use for 5-7 years that we never had any problems with them. Mitsubishi Service Team regularly comes in to inspect our machines and, in fact, main parts inside the machines are not damaged either. For those of you being interested in the off-road car accessories, can see our products under the “GORILLA” brand. You can rest your assurance on us that the quality standards are certainly comparable to those of the products from overseas because 70%-80% of our products have been produced for export, as well.”
