High-Performance Battery Startup Overcomes Manufacturing Challenges with Cutting-Edge Smart Factory Design
Customer Goals
The customer needed to design and deploy their manufacturing operators iteratively, avoiding big-bang initiatives that take years to complete.
Due to the extreme environmental control required to produce these batteries, the customer needed highly sensitive, highly accurate quality control measures.
The customer needed to identify and manage a complex network of vendors, equipment, and processes required to produce these cutting-edge batteries.
Customer Challenges
The customer was maturing from R&D focused development to manufacturing at scale, needing to design a Smart Factory built for scale.
Clip Solution
Clip’s ProServ team led a collaborative design process with the custom’s internal team to create a roadmap and project plan to build their first facility.
Clip developed a completely customized test chamber that enabled the customer to verify and ensure that no contaminations occurred during production.
Clip designed a comprehensive, scalable data architecture that enabled the customer to set clear requirements for potential vendors and partners.
Outcome
Clip delivered a manufacturing process roadmap that optimized for ease of assembly, cost control, and quality in an extremely physically restricted environment.
The customer was able to de-risk their production process, enabling full visibility into their manufacturing operation with go/no-go stage gates.
The customer now has an integrated manufacturing process and data architecture that is centralized, uniform, comprehensive, and built to scale.
