The challenge

The challenge

Initial situation: For a new product line, additional fixtures and prototype assemblies had to be produced at short notice.

Bottleneck: The internal team was already tied up with serial launch work and change iterations.

Quality requirement: Dimensional accuracy, clean weld appearance and fast reaction to design changes were critical.

Project risk: Delays on sample parts would have blocked approvals and follow-on processes.

Our approach

Detailed intake: Drawing packages, tolerances and priorities for each assembly were clarified before deployment.

Targeted qualification match: We selected welders with proven experience in fixture and prototype fabrication.

Flexible deployment plan: The team was integrated in a way that allowed short-notice changes without disrupting workflow.

Close coordination: Daily feedback with production management and work preparation ensured clear priorities.
