We, as LSgear machining engineers,know that coordination between high-precision gears and housings is quite crucial. But decentralized purchasing of the two components must dock with multiple suppliers, manage multiple quotations and lead times, occupy engineering time, and introduce coordination risks such as interface mismatch, high communication costs, and supply chain uncertainty.
During the design iterations, multiple rounds of questions, technical clarifications, and negotiations are repeated.To ensure all indications of gears and housings are qualified, procurement from multiple sources makes coordination a bottleneck to project quality and progress.
Time to streamline!Suppose one partner can handle the needs ofgear machiningand housings, and one consolidated price is paid.Not only a price simplification, but also a development of supply chain strategy:
- Efficiency optimization:Reduced supplier management and coordination time.
- Collaborative optimization:One supplier controls the process, tolerances, and assembly globally to reduce risks.
- Controllable costs:Composed prices are conducive to precise budget control.
- Clear responsibilities:Single interface simplifies problem tracing and solving.
- Unleashing potential:Engineers focus on design and innovation.
This article will cover LS's integrated supply model for supply chain simplification, obtaining a single price commitment, improving efficiency, reliability, and competitiveness, bidding cumbersomeness farewell, and welcoming collaborative value.

1. Guarantee 100% assembly success rate:
- Pain point:Dispersed procurement can easily cause parts mismatch, assembly failure, delays and extra cost.
- LS solution:We producegearsand housings internally, and perform virtual assembly and rigorous tolerance analysis at the design phase.
- Your benefits:You receive a "kit" that has been inspected and guaranteed to assemble trouble-free, completely eliminating assembly risks, improving product reliability, and saving time and cost for future debugging and rework.
2. Simplified supply chain and clear quotation:
- Pain point:Time and effort are required to manage many suppliers, quotations are not clear, there are many hidden fees, and total cost is difficult to control.
- LS solution:Just get connected with us. The internet-based system provides transparent singlegear machining prices(Gear Machining Price) and more valuable packaged quotations for an entire set of components.
- Your benefits:Supply chain is enormously simplified, the total cost of the project is clear at a glance, there are no cost surprises, procurement decisions are more effective and faster, and management costs and complexity are extremely reduced.
3. Shorten your product development cycle:
- Pain points:Difficulty in coordinating multiple suppliers' schedules, slow response to design change, and drastic slowdown of development rhythm.
- LS solution:All the key components (gears, housings, etc.) are produced synchronously and sold in parallel, with scheduled coordination and rapid response to change.
- Your benefits:Faster sample delivery, faster design iteration, smoother ramp-up of mass production, significantly shortened overall development cycle, and help products to seize the market earlier.
These three advantages are closely combined to provide you with efficient, stable and problem-free complete solutions, allowing you to focus on core innovation and success earlier.
Success Story: Creating A High-efficiency And Silent Power Module For Leading AGV Robots
Hi, I'm Gloria, an LS engineer. I'd like to share with you our latest success story in supplying a power module to a leading warehouse automation (AGV) robot customer.
1. Customer challenge:
The customer is developing a next-generation high-performance AGV robot and has extremely stringent requirements for the core drive unit: it must provide ultra-quiet operation in a highly compact envelope. Their original supply chain model was topurchase gearsand housings separately and assemble them in-house. This caused two primary problems: 1) The drive unit assembly noise always exceeded the standard, affecting the robot's performance and application environment; 2) Dispersed supply chain management is complex, which significantly restricts the speed of mass production, and new product launch is under tremendous pressure.
2. LS's solution:
- Having been faced with the challenge by the customer, LS was not limited to providing a single component, but assumed the function of design, manufacture and delivery of the entire power module. This includes:
- Integrated design and manufacturing:We precision-manufactured the core high-precision helical gear set in-house, and designed a light-weight aluminum alloy housing to optimally match the two.
- Deep collaborative engineering:Our engineers worked closely with customers in conducting extensive joint DFM/DFA (manufacturability/assembly design) reviews, especially for critical items such as bearing tolerances.
- Integrated test delivery:The module is pre-assembled at theLS factoryand put through rigorous noise testing and verification so that the performance is up to mark before being shipped to the customer as a complete unit.
3. Final results:
- Dramatic noise reduction:The final power module delivered has 30% lower operating noise than the customer's prior solution, precisely meeting the quiet specifications.
- Leap in efficiency:The customer's assembly time was significantly slashed by 85% due to pre-installation of the module, substantially simplifying the production process.
- Time to market accelerated:The supply chain integration and the early resolution of issues allowed the customer's new generation of robot products to be launched one month in advance of the original schedule.
4. Customer feedback:
- Customers praised our one-stop solution:"LS's one-stop servicesolved our most frustrating supply chain and quality problems." This is not only a recognition of our technical capability, but also a recognition of our insistence on creating core value for customers.
This case exactly demonstrates thevalue of LSas a power solution partner: we don't merely provide components, but deliver integrated, validated, and complete module solutions that have the capability to directly solve customer pain points, help customers seize market opportunities.
