SKP Production

The details of the production process of SKP are as follows:

The major products manufactured by SKP are as follows:

Procurement of Raw Materials and Moulds
The raw materials required for the injection moulding process comprising commodity resins and engineering plastic are procured in accordance with the customers' specifications from the raw materials suppliers.
The plastic injection moulded parts and components are then subject to final quality control testing, packaged and sent to the customers or are subject to secondary processes as detailed below.
Secondary Processes
Secondary processes comprise of processes to enhance the appearance of the finished products. These processes are usually required to print the brand names of the manufacturers on the casings of the electronic and electrical products.

Secondary processes include processes such as hot stamping, silk screen printing, pad printing and spray painting. Hot stamping is a process where aluminium foils of various colours are stamped on selected portions of the moulded parts. Silk screen printing is a process of printing logos, brand names or other particulars on the moulded plastic parts using silk-screen printers. Pad printing is a process of printing directly onto the plastic parts or components. Spray painting is a process of painting the surface of moulded plastic parts by spraying.

Upon the completion of any of the secondary processes mentioned above, the plastic part or component is subject to final quality control testing before being packaged and sent to the customers or is sub-assembled as detailed below.
Sub-assembly Processes
The plastic parts and components from the secondary processes are sub-assembled into other plastic parts and components in accordance with the specifications and stringent requirements of the customers. Upon the completion of this process, the sub-assembled plastic parts and components are subject to final quality control testing before being packaged and sent to the customers.

The precision required in the production of injection moulded parts and components is very critical to ensure that the quality of SKP's products meet the requirements of its multi-national corporation customers. Hence, in 1998 SKP automated certain of its manufacturing processes by using robots which allowed SKP to operate 24 hours daily to meet customers' demands promptly without compromising on quality. Among the automation which are widely used by SKP are as follows:

Auto Loading Plastics Injection Robotic Arms
The auto loading plastics injection robotic arms principally handle the output from the production line. This will ensure that all output per machine are consistent throughout the whole production process.
Auto Rotational Pad Printing Machines
The auto rotational pad printing machines principally automate the pad printing process and ensure consistent and high quality output throughout the printing process. The machine was designed by the General Manager of SKP and the Director of SKPRM, Chia Choong Kim.

The automation process has successfully reduced the labour cost of the Group and ensured the consistency and the quality of the products.
