Lu-Yi Die Works: All Our Pursuit of Every Client’s Satisfaction

Located in Hemei, Changhua (Taiwan), Lu-Yi Die Works Co., Ltd. is a top-level drill point dies manufacturer. Established in 1988, Lu-Yi continues to stick to the spirit of “satisfying each client’s demand” and has been in the business for more than 3 decades. It has now become an exemplary die manufacturer to many domestic/foreign fastener manufacturers. Different from other manufacturers offering tens of die types, Lu-Yi has dedicated itself to the R&D and manufacture of drill point dies, of which it is very capable, since its inception, and its drill point dies are all compliant with int’l standards (i.e., drill point dia. 2.1- 10mm & drill point length 1.5-22mm). These dies play an indispensable and essential role in the manufacturing procedures of carbon steel and SS self-drilling screws. The company is specialized in manufacturing all sizes of drill point dies made of tungsten steel and high speed steel and the types include Pinch Point, Center Point, Bullet Shape Point, Nail Shape Point and Wing Point. In addition, Lu-Yi can also offer die customization service for any screw dimension requested by any client. Such flexible R&D and manufacturing capabilities have made Lu-Yi dies widely adopted by its domestic/foreign clients and successfully sold to China, Japan, S. Korea, Australia, India, Thailand, Poland, Italy, Germany, Austria, Turkey and so on.

CAD/CAM Manufacturing Technology / Industrywide Admired Die Quality

Knowing that quality is the main point to create added value for clients and give a soul to products, Lu-Yi introduced CAD/CAM manufacturing technology into the company in 1996, which has not only widened the distance of its R&D and manufacturing level from its competitors, but also consolidated the base for it to maintain consistent performance and stability of its products.

President James Lu, who has led Lu-Yi for 15 years, said, “Self-drilling screws include features of drilling, tapping and fastening and there is no requirement for pre-drilling, thus showing the dual advantages of cost and time savings. Currently the industry requires that self-drilling screws must be not only more labor saving and safer, but also quicker. In other words, the drilling speed must be quicker and the time for a screw to penetrate through the steel plate must be also shorter. In order to achieve this goal, having the best quality of drill points will be very essential. As the leading company in this area, Lu-Yi strives to be the best of the best and never stops improving its drill point dies design for achieving the most effective penetration within the shortest time. In addition to drilling and tapping speed, extending the service life of dies is also what we are striving for.” President Lu said proudly, “Lu-Yi’s dies allow users to form drill points with less effort, which means less impact on dies and thus longer service life! Longer service life could significantly reduce the cost and times for die replacement. What’s most important is that it could help maintain smooth operation of production lines.” Lu’s words fully demonstrate the commitment of Lu-Yi’s R&D team to create the most competitive self-drilling screw drill point dies for the clients.

Independent R&D / Internationally Certificated Patents

Lu-Yi, always thinking about how to create value for clients’ brands, has had its exclusively developed dies for cutting and material flow removal parts of self-drilling and self-tapping screws patented in Taiwan and China since 2009. With the DNA of R&D and the increasing sales demand, Lu-Yi relocated to a new site three times the scale of its previous site with greatly increased capacity in 2015. It has recently invested a lot in the R&D of enhancing the drilling speed, service life and durability of dies. Lu added, “Satisfying clients’ demand is our profession and our technical team is trying to complete everything to the best.“

Sustainable Operation and Reinforcing Int’l Business Territory

Lu-Yi could even do more than others when it comes to market expansion. For example, in addition to maintaining close relationship with existing Taiwanese partners, it has also extended its reach to overseas markets in recent years to solicit more customized orders and set offering high quality dies at reasonable prices as its final goal. With human-oriented principles, the blueprint of Lu-Yi offers clients and employees the strongest backup and support. Lu concluded at the end of the interview, “In addition to satisfying clients’ demand, I also hope our employees could feel support from the company, as we value clients and employees in our blueprint. Satisfying clients, offering them complete technical support/service, taking care of our employees and their family will be the only way for Lu-Yi to achieve sustainable operation!.”
