Growth: CNC24 quadruples quality assurance capacities with new measuring center
While growth is stagnating at many other companies in the mechanical engineering sector, CNC24 is continuing to expand and is planning to quadruple its quality assurance capacities by relocating its measuring center to the Alt-Hohenschönhausen industrial estate.
Berlin, 11.03. 2024 – Since last year, the online procurement platform for precision components has been investing heavily in the automation of its platform and in new technologies to make the procurement process even more efficient.
The goal for 2024: to further expand our quality leadership in the market. The move to the Alt-Hohenschönhausen industrial estate goes hand in hand with this goal and the associated growth. The main reason for the new location is the significant expansion of capacities for measuring and storing components and larger premises, which will enable better organization of processes and service for customers.
On a total area of 1,200 square meters, the storage capacity will be increased tenfold, enabling new services such as the on-demand delivery of components. The move will enable CNC24 to cope with the increasing volume of orders. The new location enables a significantly higher throughput speed of goods and increases the possible order capacity many times over.
The move from Berlin-Tempelhof to the “City Dock Gewerbepark Berlin Zentrum” in Alt-Hohenschönhausen will also significantly improve the logistical conditions of the location. In addition to favorable transport connections, large trucks will also be able to make deliveries without any problems.
Quality offensive through larger measuring center
As a company operating in the mechanical engineering sector, CNC24 is very familiar with the requirements of German machine manufacturers, for whom the quality of the components is a top priority. Due to the relocation and the associated larger capacities, the quality of the components is carefully checked before delivery.
“The move is not only the necessary response to our growth, but also an extension of our quality promise. The quality of our components is our top priority. This has enabled us to reduce our complaint rate from 0.17% to less than 0.11%, which is a top value in the industry.
In addition to the expansion of our measuring center and a significant increase in capacity, we are also planning further automation steps and continuous air conditioning of the measuring center in 2024, as well as the establishment of a first test center outside Germany in order to guarantee the quality assurance of the components in the country of origin,” says Willi Ruopp, CEO and co-founder of CNC24.
Despite increased capacity utilization, throughput times remain short thanks to the new measuring center and a significant increase in efficiency can be achieved.
