2.0 Introduction

2.1 COMPANY PROFILES

Established over two decades ago, in the year 1988, Autokeen Sdn. Bhd. is a

private limited company specializing in metal parts manufacturing and assembly

specifically for the automotive industry, among a host of other products and services

offered. With a paid-up capital of RM5 million, and strategically located in the industrial

hub of Shah Alam, Malaysia, Autokeen has carved a niche for itself and is recognized as

Malaysia’s prominent manufacturer of automotive metal parts.

It prides itself for its strategic partnerships with automotive industry giants Proton

and Perodua, for the manufacture and development or new car models.

Twenty five years of strategic planning, steady growth, and complete customer

satisfaction have ensured that Autokeen has emerged as a leader in the industry. The

company continues to diversify and grow through previous and existing customers, who

have benefitted immensely from the high quality products and services provided by the

company, as well as new customers who eagerly trust Autokeen with their requirements.

The finest workforce coupled with the latest technology in a state-of-the-art

manufacturing facility enables Autokeen to provide its customers with products and

services that consistently exceed their expectations. Autokeen design, develop, engineer

and manufacture high quality metal stampings and assembly for the automotive industry.

3.0 OBJECTIVES OF THE VISIT

The objectives of the visit are:

1) To understand the processes involved in details about producing a high precision product.

2) To observed the working environment in the industries regarding mechanical.

3) To fulfill the requirement needed in the manufacturing course subject in the Mechanical

Engineering Faculty

4.0 FINDINGS

4.1 MANUFACTURING PROCESS

There are so many product that were manufactured by Autokeen where mostly parts of a

car. Beside that, they also manufacture a dies but only for small size since there are limitation of

their facility . There are some die used in this company which it can perform several process.

During in this visit we had choose one product to see how it being manufactured. So we had

choose an Proton Alza parts named REINF S/A DASH PANEL C/MBR. To produce this part

of Proton Alza, it will go through several processes such stamping, welding ,assembly and

quality work inspection also being perform for all subs part before delivery.

4.1.1 INCOMING

There are two types of incoming into the production line which are material or

secondtier. The secondtier incoming is where the vendor sent the half-ready product for the

factory to weld and assemble to get the finished product. The secondtier incoming is directly sent

to production lines which are welding and assembly.

As for the incoming material, it can be divided into two forms which are coil and strip.

The examples of incoming materials in the factory are mild steel, SPC, NTHD, SPD, SPDE and

SGACE. The incoming material must undergo stamping process before proceed to the

production line.

After stamping process, there are some products do not need to undergo welding process

but just proceed to assembly process. But there also some products that only undergo welding

process after stamping process and proceed to PDI. Other than that, there are also products that

need to undergo all the processes before it can be transport.

Usually, the suppliers supply the incoming materials 2 weeks earlier for the factory to

produce the products. The factory usually ordered more number of incoming materials or supply.

For example the D87A product, the number of products need for December are 10500 unit, the

factory will ordered 11000 unit in case of defects that may be happen during the production.

4.1.2 STAMPING

There are three types of stamping machine available in Autokeen factory which can be

categorize by the size of the product small, medium and large. Dies price between RM100,000 to

RM200,000. One part of product usually will go through several stamping process where each

stamping are different process such a bending, pearcing and blanking process. The

manufacturing process of REINF S/A DASH PANEL C/MBR begin with Raw plate material

where will through stamping process. Stamping process started with part drawings or CAD data

design provided by customers for small to medium press machines. Small die were made by

using CNC milling. Design given by the customer are develop by Autokeen Design Engineer to

fabricate dies, assembly jigs, hand gauge, checking fixtures in support of the above parts

development.

REINF S/A DASH PANEL C/MBR consist of two part where one of it need to be

stamped by large press machine. The large press machines are very huge and it can do the

stamping processes with high pressure. The press machines are 1200 – 800 – 800 - 600 tan per

stamping. Those machines are CNC machining and can produce a lot number of products in a

time. The average time per one stamping process is 5 to 10 seconds. The large products are

obtained from these large press machines. Another part of this product need to be stamped by

medium press machines . The medium press machines are producing medium-size products. It is

also can do the stamping processes with relatively high pressure. The tan per stamping for

medium machines is 800 – 500 – 500 – 500 which the process per stamping is forming –

trimming – piercing – shaping respectively. Most of the products from the Autokeen are undergo

medium press process. The medium machines are also CNC machining.

4.1.3 WELDING

Welding is at the heart of metal fabrication . Autokeen provide welding and assembly

services of modular parts and components utilized by their clients, manufacturing sub assembly

of body panel metal stamping parts using various types of spot welding machines such as robotic

spot welding, stationary spot welders, portable, projection MIG welders. Since this part

consisting of three subs part, welding assembly need to be done to join them together. The

welding of the products can be divided into two which are Welding Stationary Spot (WSS) and

Welding Assembly Portable (WAP). The WAP is the welding at the spot which bolt and nut are

later to be attached. The types of welding that are used in the factory are Gas Metal Arc Welding

(GMAW), spot welding and spark welding. The spot welding is done by using guns which can

be divided into two which are S-gun or C-gun.

Figure 4 - S-gun and C-gun

4.1.4 ASSEMBLY

By using a jig, the products is being assembled. There are a lot of jigs needed in order to

produce one part. During this process, there are workers that checking the features of the

products. The standard tolerance is when there are some products exceeded the

tolerance given, the products can be rework. Defect, usually occur during cutting process caused

by blunt cutting tool creating burr on cutting edge. This burr will creating a gap between two

parts of the product and spot weld could not be proceed, hence the burr need to be removed. The

burr removal can be done by using grinder.

4.1.5 QUALITY CONTROL

These are some aspect that are being evaluated, where workers need to ensure all of the aspect

were performed.

In this quality control specific on welding points, in this section worker needed to ensure 7 spot

welding were done at all red point below, 4 nut(M6) placed at yellow point, 2 bolt(M8) placed at grey

points, flange nut(M8) at blue point and lastly 4 stud weld manually done at four green points.

4.1.6 OUTGOING

Finally, the complete assembly product then will be ready for delivery to their customer, to be

exact this product will be sent to PRODUA company to complete the assembly of Produa Alza. Below are

some of product which being manufactured by Autokeen for PRODUA.
