Hyster enjoys a wonderful relationship with the majority of its clients due its focus on producing complete client satisfaction through its world class manufacturing. Our objective is to foresee the requirements of all our customers in addition to deal with them with forklifts which provide the dependability, the value and the performance that they truly need.
Hyster completely believes in starting with the client. The company conducts yearly focus groups and offers on-going voice of customer research that is conducted both on line and in the field. We have more than 400 design engineers to translate that input into intelligent designs by applying our rigorous review gate process. Virtual prototype builds and advanced tools help make sure that the best equipment practices come together. Other advanced tools like dynamic modeling and virtual prototype builds help to shorten our product development cycle. We enjoy giving our clients a competitive edge.
All of our machinery are subjected to virtual, physical and environmental tests, so as to ensure the lowest cost of ownership and total reliability. Not only do we test against our own standards, but we are also always testing against the competition's products. Our final tests take place in real-world customer applications so as to make certain that our products have met our strict standards.
Demand-Flow Manufacturing Which is Lean and Smart
Hyster's manufacturing is world-class driven by its DFT or Demand Flow Technology. Each and every aspect of plant operation is driven by DFT lean manufacturing principals toward a single goal: to deliver total customer satisfaction and flawless quality 100% of the time, all the time.
Total Quality All The Time
To initiate quality from the beginning, Hyster uses an integrated MES or Manufacturing Execution System. The job of the MES is to manage production flow. The MES coordinates line activities like for instance quality verification and part sequencing. It also uses torque tools and quality gates to prevent less than perfect assemblies from continuing down the line. Hyster holds random audits during each shift. These audits actually hold all employees responsible for constant quality, combined with the 5s workplace organization in place to help us achieve it.
As standard with all our products, Hyster offers a huge array of features. The corporation has remained completely devoted to its key focus on quality and safety, on being innovative each time, and by providing some of the best material handling equipment on the market. These are just a few of the reasons the company has become a leader within the industry.
