Chin Lih Hsing (CLH), the supplier of precision turned parts, has cooperated with global automotive, motorbikes, electronics, cable wires, and other industrial market leaders for 30 years. The company’s product ranges include brass inserts, clinching parts, and CNC parts with nearly half of the products are automotive fasteners.
The owner of CLH, Mr. Lee said “CLH began doing business in the automotive fastener market in Taiwan when the economy started to grow in 1988. In 2000, after 12 years of successfully doing business in the domestic market, CLH started to export products worldwide. Up until now, they have received positive reviews from their world-class customers.”
Technology, Quality, and Service Are The Keys To Success
Currently, Chin Lih Hsing has 30 CNC machines and 200 auto lathes machines in their factory, located in New Taipei City. Being in the industry for around 30 years, CLH’s strong engineering know-how has become their core competency. Under the leadership of Mr. Lee, the CLH engineering team not only can provide designs for manufacturing based on customers’ drawings, but also provide best possible solutions to customers’ engineering-related questions. The strong technical background makes CLH irreplaceable with other industry players.
The quality requirements for manufacturing automotive fasteners are stricter than products using in other industries. As a result, CLH took the lead among the industry competitors to become an ISO 9000 and ISO/TS 16949 company in 2006. Over the years, the company has also introduced various testing devices such as optical sorting machines to conduct quality control. Mr. Lee explained, “Taiwanese fastener industry is quite mature now and most of these companies understand the importance of quality control. Hence, it is common that many of them have been internationally certified and their testing devices have been updated. However, the key is whether they execute it properly.” Unlike other companies, CLH always guarantees its quality and provides the best of it to their customers.
If the technology and quality are the shields, the service must be the sword to compete in the global market. As Mr. Lee, the President of CLH, believes success of a business always comes from satisfied customers, CLH’s sales team always stands in the shoes of the customers and response immediately to solve any questions or concerns. Therefore, CLH is always the priority choice of their big name customers in supplying precision CNC machined parts.
The Next Step of the Fastener Industry
Over the years, as there has been increasing human awareness on the environmental protection, government regulations on material processing becomes stricter, and demand for green cars is growing faster than before. Moreover, as the results of the quantitative easing imposed by certain country to improve their domestic economy, the world economy is also expected to gain positive effects and will be further improved in 2017. Therefore, while waiting for the time to come, Mr. Lee thinks that the company should be well-prepared in order to be ready for the new opportunities in the fasteners industry.
