FDTI’s Visit to GIH: Exploring Collaborations & Partnership in Plastic Cased Parts with Electronic Integration
FDTI’s Visit to GIH : Strengthening Industry Collaboration and Partnership
Observing GIH's Production Processes and Facilities: A Step Towards Collaborative Success
On May 26th, 2023, GIH had the privilege of hosting a delegation from FDTI (Forum Dekan Teknik Wilayah Barat), an esteemed body comprising deans from the engineering faculties of the west region universities in Indonesia. The purpose of their visit was twofold: to gain a comprehensive understanding of our production processes and facilities and to explore potential collaborations and partnerships between GIH and FDTI and its members.
The visit commenced with a brief introduction to GIH in our product design office meeting space. We provided an overview of our company, highlighting our expertise in plastic cased parts with electronic integration and our commitment to innovation. The deans were eager to witness our operations firsthand, and we embarked on a comprehensive plant walk-through.
- Production Line: Accompanied by our knowledgeable staff, the delegation explored various areas of our facility. We started at the production line, where they observed the intricacies of horizontal and vertical injection molding, wire harness manufacturing, and SMT PCBA assembly. The deans were impressed by our advanced technologies and efficient processes.
- Tooling Inventory Room & Workshop: Next, we proceeded to the tooling facility and the tool room, where we showcased our capabilities in tool fabrication and maintenance. The deans were fascinated by the precision and craftsmanship involved in creating molds and appreciated the importance of this critical stage in the production cycle.
- Warehouse: Continuing the tour, we visited the warehouse, where they witnessed our streamlined inventory management systems and our commitment to ensuring efficient logistics.
- Secondary Process Lab: We also showcased our secondary process treatment lab, highlighting our dedication to delivering high-quality finished products to our clients.
- Offices: As they ventured through both floors of our offices, the deans got a glimpse into our collaborative work environment, driven by innovation and expertise.
During the visit, we fostered networking opportunities between the FDTI members and GIH staff. A break was provided, accompanied by snacks, allowing for informal discussions and the exchange of ideas. It was during this time that a few FDTI members tried their hands at one of our company’s products—a floating globe utilizing magnetic field technology. With a little guidance, they successfully made the globe float, showcasing the practical application of physics in our products.
The highlight of the visit was the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between FDTI and GIH. This formalized our commitment to fostering collaboration and partnership in the field of plastic cased parts with electronic integration. The MOU outlined the areas of cooperation and the shared objectives of both organizations.
As the visit concluded, we bid farewell to the esteemed delegation at the reception. A closing speech and a discussion on collaboration methods reaffirmed our commitment to working together towards advancing the industry and empowering future engineers.
At GIH, we believe that collaboration and partnerships are vital for innovation and growth. The visit by FDTI was an excellent opportunity for us to showcase our expertise, build meaningful connections, and lay the foundation for fruitful collaborations. We look forward to a future of shared successes and advancements in the field of plastic cased parts with electronic integration.
