Hyster enjoys a wonderful relationship with most of its clients due its focus on creating total client satisfaction through its world class manufacturing. Our goal is to foresee the needs of each client as well as deal with them with forklifts that deliver the dependability, the value and the performance which they truly demand.
Hyster fully believes in starting with the client. The company performs yearly focus groups and provides on-going voice of customer research that is conducted both online and in the field. We have more than 400 design engineers to translate that input into intelligent designs by applying our thorough review gate process. Advanced tools and virtual prototype builds help make sure that the best machine practices come together. Other advanced tools like dynamic modeling and virtual prototype builds help to shorten our product development cycle. We enjoy giving our clients a competitive edge.
In order to guarantee the lowest ownership cost and total dependability all of Hyster's equipment are subjected to virtual, physical and environmental tests. Not only do we test against our own standards, but we are always testing against the competition's products too. Our final tests take place in real-world customer applications so as to make certain that our products have met our strict standards.
Demand-Flow Manufacturing Which is Lean and Smart
Hyster's manufacturing is world-class driven by its DFT or Demand Flow Technology. Each and every aspect of plant operation is driven by DFT lean manufacturing principals toward a single objective: to provide total customer satisfaction and flawless quality 100 percent of the time, each and every time.
Total Quality Each Time
Hyster utilizes an integrated MES or Manufacturing Execution System to initiate excellence from the start. The MES is responsible for managing production flow. The MES coordinates line activities like for example 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 every shift. These audits actually hold all workers responsible for consistent quality, combined with the 5s workplace organization in place to help us achieve it.
As standard with all our products, Hyster provides a huge array of features. The corporation has remained completely committed to its key focus on both safety and quality, on being innovative each and every time, and by offering several of the best material handling machines on the market. These are only a few of the reasons why the company has become a leader within the industry.
