Customer Multiplied Total Sales 5x
About ten years ago, two men named “Brian” and “Ron” working for a machining company in Orange County, California contacted Kinetic Die Casting Company to quote a “Project” for a simple die casting tool to produce from 5,000 to 23,000 sets of parts.
Each set would make up a “Night Vision Goggle Device”.These sets consisted of seven (7) separate parts; the machining company would machine and assemble.
Brian needed these parts delivered very fast. The cost of the tooling needed to be inexpensive in order to be competitive.
We decided to make a “unit die tool” because of the low quantity potential and chose a good toolmaker in the Los Angeles area to make the tool. We opted to trim the parts with a simple “push through trim die” and to hand finish the parts. In order to make the tooling, we used 3D files from their Mastercam to produce IGES files. We added the shrinkage and draft necessary in order for the die casting tool to function properly.
The project went very well. In fact, Brian won additional contracts to produce more Night Vision Goggles. For a few years we were producing up to 5,000 sets or 35,000 parts every week. For three years straight this company was our top customer company and for five years a very good customer indeed.
At the project conclusion Kinetic Die Casting Company had produced over 400,000 sets of parts or 2,800,000 parts from that simple die casting tool for our good customer. This was a huge success for our customer because they grew in sales over 5x in those five years.
