Demand-Flow Manufacturing That is Lean and Smart
Our world-class manufacturing at Hyster is driven by DFT or Demand Flow Technology. Each aspect of plant operation is driven by DFT lean manufacturing principals toward a single goal: to provide total client satisfaction and flawless quality 100 percent of the time, every time.
Total Quality Every Time
To initiate quality from the start, Hyster utilizes an integrated Manufacturing Execution System or MES. The job of the MES is to manage production flow. The MES coordinates line activities like quality verification and part sequencing. It also uses quality gates and torque tools to prevent less than perfect assemblies from continuing down the line. Hyster holds random audits during each and every shift. These audits really hold all workers accountable for consistent quality, combined with the 5s workplace organization in place to help us attain it.
As standard with all our products, Hyster offers a huge range of features. The corporation has remained fully devoted to its key focus on both safety and quality, on being innovative each time, and by offering some of the best material handling equipment on the market. These are just a few of the reasons the company has become a leader within the industry.
