Hongyi Precision formed a 9-member delivery optimization team to reengineer processes targeting three key delay points—drawing review, material procurement, and production line changeover—for automotive and robotics FPC orders. A dedicated fast-track channel for innovative customers was established, and prototype and mass-production lines were separated. As a result, new project prototype lead time decreased by 22%, small-batch order delivery shortened from 12 days to 8 days, and on-time delivery rate improved from 85.7% to 97.3%. All reliability testing procedures remain fully intact.
Tier-1 automotive suppliers and humanoid robotics startups commonly face identical challenges: rapid product iteration, multiple versions, and low-volume orders. Conventional factories struggle with long scheduling cycles, causing repeated delays in sample delivery—directly impeding customers’ end-product development timelines. Many manufacturers run prototypes and mass production on shared lines, resulting in capacity conflicts and chronic delivery slippage.
To address these pain points, Hongyi Precision assembled a cross-functional team of nine core engineers, production specialists, and sales personnel into a high-end project delivery optimization group. Over three months, the team mapped end-to-end bottlenecks, analyzing 236 automotive and robotics FPC orders from the past year. Three critical delay drivers were identified—drawing review, material procurement, and line changeover—and the scheduling system was redesigned accordingly. A dedicated fast-track channel for innovative customers was launched, including DFM pre-review acceleration; safety stock of multiple automotive-grade PI films and high-ductility rolled copper foil was maintained to minimize material wait times; and separate prototype and mass-production lines were implemented to prevent order interference.
R&D engineers now engage directly with customers’ hardware teams, responding to drawing-related issues within two hours to proactively identify structural design flaws and reduce revision cycles. Post-reform, new project prototype lead time improved by 22%; standard small-batch order delivery shortened from 12 days to 8 days; and order slippage rate dropped from 14.3% to 2.7%.
Fast delivery does not compromise quality. Hongyi Precision maintains equal emphasis on efficiency and reliability—retaining all reliability testing procedures unchanged while accelerating throughput. Targeting the rapidly expanding embodied AI and new-energy vehicle markets, Hongyi Precision aims to support domestic innovators with faster response times, enabling accelerated product iteration and advancing domestic supply chain localization.
