Because we measure a different part every time,
it's interesting to have a change!
When I was job hunting, I went to various companies to tour their factories, but the fact that the people who responded were cheerful and easy to interact with made me decide to join the company. Even after joining the company, a wide range of people, from young people to veterans, spoke to me in a friendly manner, and I was able to quickly relax with myself even though I was nervous at my first workplace.
For the first four years after joining the company, I was in charge of measurement work using coordinate measuring machines, calipers, micrometers, etc. in the Quality Control Division, and was in charge of compiling the data into Excel and submitting it to customers. We make various automobile parts, and they differ in size and shape. Therefore, the place to measure and the points to be noted are different every time depending on the part. It's interesting because you often encounter parts that you see for the first time, and it's not the same thing over and over again every day.
Shipment of non-conforming products continues to be "0".
Even after being transferred to the Press Division, I am in charge of measurement work as I was in the Quality Control Division. In addition to stamped parts, I also go to support other departments such as measuring welded parts. Metal parts fluctuate due to temperature and humidity, so concentration is required when measuring 1/1000 of a millimeter.
As a result of pursuing measurement work, we have won prizes in our Skills Olympiad for three consecutive years since the first year after joining the company. In addition, we have been able to propose to customers "How about this measurement method?", and the number of satisfied customers by saying "Thank you for making a good proposal" has also increased. Recently, pressed, welded, and surface treated parts have been subjected to visual inspection before shipment. This year, shipments of non-conforming products are currently at 0, so we will continue to make efforts to ensure that "0" continues as the last bastion to protect quality.
