Vision Statement Our ambition is to generate lasting growth and profitability through a vigorous program of innovation and to be recognized by all automakers as the expert in each of our 6 modules. We must diversify our customers and support each of them to their new production location with strong involvement towards North America and Asia. Pierre Levi. Chairman and CEO of Faurecia 13
Agenda: 1. Company Presentation and Vision 2. Challenges: a. Productivity gains b. Globalisation 3. General conclusion 14
Faurecia has to meet the following challenges: Offer on contract basis a yearly cost reduction to the car manufacturers. Follow our customer s globalisation pace without any concession on quality. How can we achieve this? By realising productivity gains!! By developing world wide and consistent expertise 15
Agenda: 1. Company Presentation and Vision 2. Challenges: a. Productivity gains b. Globalisation 3. General conclusion 16
Productivity gains.. Some criteria used to evaluate suppliers: Overall Equipment Effectiveness (O.E.E.) Maintenance cost Number of days without work accidents Environmental production (ISO 14000) Number of rejected components (PPM) Etc. The first two criteria are directly related to Tooling Performance 17
TOOLING FOR AUTOMOTIVE SEATING: 18
Tooling for Automotive seating : an example Tooling investment for a complete set (excluding machines) = +/- 35 mio. Average model life cycle: 8 years Average number of seat sets produced: 5.000.000 If a complete set of car seats costs 500: 300 is raw materials and purchased components: In these 300 we find: 7 (2,3%) for tooling where off Tool Steel value is < 1 (0,14% of the value of a seat set!!!) 30 (10%) maintenance cost 200 is for labour costs, overhead etc. 19
Tooling for Automotive seating By using more performant tool steel, we can halve the maintenance cost. This means a cost saving of 15!! Or 3% on a complete set 20
Some examples of productivity gains: Project: metal parts for SAAB 93 convertible Work material: DP600 (SSAB), thickness 2,5 mm Main problem: too high maintenance cost of stamping and forming tools due to wear and chipping. Objective: Reduce tool maintenance cost New stamping and forming tool was ordered from local tool shop ECTM with active parts in Vanadis 4 + Balzers TiCN Result: tool life has increased with factor 2 up to factor 4. This made a component cost reduction of 5% possible! 21
Some examples of productivity gains: Project: metal parts for SAAB 93 Conclusion: We gained 5% on the price of the formed parts Uddeholm sold High Performance Tool steel Tool user has improved his O.E.E. and reduced his maintenance cost 22
TOOLING FOR PLASTIC MOULDING: 23
Tooling for plastic moulding: an example Plastic injection of dashboard console (PSA Group) at Redon plant Initial cycle time: 60 s P20 type steel injection mould on a 1000 t injection press Problems: Too long cooling time of plastic part Distortion after de-moulding of part An examination with Infra Red camera showed temperature variations in the part of 80 C, 10 s after de-moulding. 24
Plastic injection of dashboard console (PSA Group) 25
Plastic injection of dashboard (PSA Group) By working in close co-operation with Uddeholm BFR Bernard Taché, we eliminated the distortion problem and we have been able to realise a cycle time reduction of 20 % by increasing the polymerisation speed. Saving per component: 5 to 7% Comments from Mr. Dallerac, tooling expert at Faurecia: Thanks to the thermal investigation, we have been able to clearly identify several hot spots in the mould. By introducing inserts made of high thermal conductivity alloys, we managed to increase the speed of the polymerisation process. The material advised by Uddeholm was Moldmax HH 26
Plastic injection of dashboard (PSA Group) Conclusions: Uddeholm sold tooling material and Faurecia realised important productivity gains (WIN-WIN situation) The investment in the new tooling material is irrelevant compared to the component cost reduction 27
Agenda: 1. Company Presentation and Vision 2. Challenges: a. Productivity gains b. Globalisation 3. General conclusion 28
What do we understand by Globalisation? 1. Follow our customers where ever they settle 2. Global tooling and component sourcing 29
1.Follow our customers Customer request: To manufacture cars for the local market with the same quality level as in Europe : Peugeot 307 in China Peugeot 206 in China Toyota Corolla in Turkey The trend will be to import oversea produced cars in Europe : Renault Megane Station Wagon from Turkey into Europe Ford Transit Connect from Turkey into Europe 30
2. Global tooling and component sourcing Bear in mind that 60% of component cost is purchase related (excluding overheads). Global sourcing is a major mean to increase profitability and to strengthen our competitive position. However, Quality consistency is a prerequisite! Our purchase strategy is to increase our outsourcing in emerging markets from 15% up to 30% by the end of 2006. Mr. G. Breining, Group Purchase Manager 31
2. Global tooling and component sourcing Some examples in seating module : Tooling side cushion member in Korea Tooling and components for Renault Espace in Turkey Tooling and components for SAAB 93 Convertible in Slovenia Tooling and components for Renault Mégane in Slovenia and Turkey Tooling and components for Peugeot 807 in Poland And more and more 32
Our expectations from Uddeholm/ASSAB : Put your slogan into practice: Where ever tools are made Where ever tools are used. We expect your excellence applied where ever we will be located! We expect continuous improvements through product innovation and R&D. 33
Agenda: 1. Company Presentation and Vision 2. Challenges: a. Productivity gains b. Globalisation 3. General conclusion 34
General conclusion: We save money by spending more!! When talking about purchase costs, one should not look from a single perspective. One does not save money by reducing the purchase cost of tooling. At Faurecia, we look at the total cost picture, from the start right down to the real cost per component in the end. Working together with world wide committed and reliable partners helps us to reach our objectives. 35
