Suzhou Factory
Suzhou Factory
In 2003, KST Technology (Suzhou) Co., Ltd. was established in Suzhou, China, as KST’s first overseas product manufacturing plant and a product marketing center in China. There are currently more than 400 employees, including quality laboratories, product development, mold design and manufacturing, precision metal continuous stamping, plastic injection, welding, assembly, packaging and shipping, etc., and supply product development and manufacturing in China
There is no greater benchmark for success than customer satisfaction.
Research and development-Suzhou factory has independent development capabilities from material analysis, product development, mold design, to mold processing, and testing and verification, and has built complete experimental equipment.
In terms of materials-100% of the terminals and connectors of all specifications are produced using original plastic pellets and copper strips, with high-speed injection molding machines and punching equipment to ensure the stability of production quality.
On the manufacturing process-Suzhou factory has achieved a high degree of automation, from automatic feeding, robotic arms, automatic screening, CCD quality inspection, to automatic visual counting and packaging, gradually realizing one-stop automated production.
Completely synergize resource taxing relationships via premier niche markets. Professionally cultivate one-to-one customer service with robust ideas. Dynamically innovate resource-leveling customer service for state of the art customer service.
Metal Parts Production Process
Metal Parts Production Process
Step 1
Raw Copper Materials
Incoming Quality inspection (IQC) including visual inspection, hardness testing, conductivity testing, size & direction confirmation.
Step 2
Automated Stamping Press
A fully automatic mechanical feeder is used to place the copper material into the mold for stamping and forming at high speed. The size tolerance is maintained automatically via CCD Inspection.
At present, there are about xx stamping presses. The annual production output for stamped products is about xx billion pieces. Stamped products range in size from a minimum of 6 mm to a maximum of 150 mm.
Step 3
Automated Welding Machine
An automatic annealing & welding machine is used to weld the terminal and automated CCD inspection is used to ensure 100% product yield.
Step 4
Electroplating
KST’s electroplating factory is located in the National Industrial Environmental Zone. It supports fast, high-quality electroplating surface treatments. Production processes are in full compliance with government environmental regulations and emission standards.
Step 5
Automatic CCD Inspection machine
The finished product passes between vibrating plates, and the CCD Inspection machine can automatically detect the defective appearance of products.
The Automation Department engineer codes programs to detect abnormal quality products through PLC (programming logical controller) signals and automatically returns the materials to the defective products area.
Step 6
Automatic Assembly Machine
Assembly machines designed in-house automatically assemble terminals and connectors, and use CCD Inspection to ensure specified size and appearance tolerances are met to ensure 100% product yield.
Step 7
Packaging and Labelling
With CCD automatic optical counting and packaging machines specified quantities are placed into bags and labeled.
Step 8
Finished Product Undergoes OQC
Products undergo Outgoing Quality Control (OQC) including optical inspection, quantity confirmation, as well as various electrical and performance testing.
Plastic Injection Production Process
Plastic Injection Production Process
Step 1
Plastic materials
Incoming material inspection IQC, ROHS test, packaging identification
Step 2
Injection Molding
After mixing the color of the raw materials, they are dried at a certain temperature and time, and the injection molding machine is heated to melt the injection molding plastic material.
Step 3
Automated Assembly Machines
Use automatic assembly equipment to assemble the terminal and the insulating sheath, and use CCD detection to ensure product quality
Step 4
Packaging and shipping
With visual counting automatic packaging machine, the integration of automatic bagging and labeling is completed
Step 5
Outgoing Quality Control (ICQ)
Outgoing Quality Control (OQC): Appearance inspection, packaging method, identification quantity confirmation
Our mandate is to leverage our resources, state-of-the-art quality assurance laboratories, and highly customizable automated manufacturing processes to consistently produce quality products and services, delivering unparalleled value to each and every one of our customers.
