Supplier Activities

In our Nyíregyháza and Jászberény facilities, our professional team performs the assembly of items to be supplied on an area of 5,400 m² including storages.
To increase our competitiveness, we use a proprietary quality control system all along our production processes. This provides information about the products to our partners as well as to the management system. The purpose of this is to increase the productivity, safety and efficiency of our customers.

Processes:

Cable cutting
Stripping of multi-core cables
Production of crimps
Production of cable harnesses
Assembly of printed circuit panels and programming, using ESD protection
Full function tests of products on demand
Lean manufacturing of large quantities for complex mechanical assembly

Production of fittings

Our production facility for fittings was launched in January 2002, as an outsourced department of the Jászberény industrial facility of Electrolux for the assembly of electrical components. It started with around 100 employees, many of whom are still working at our company. As we kept on satisfying the increasing demands of our partners to the highest possible extent and our productivity was continuously increasing, several further activities were added to our initial activity of supplying electrical components, like custom wiring or production of standard and custom control cabinets.
Beside our experienced engineers and technicians, the key of our success is that we satisfy the demands of our customers to the most possible extent and in accordance with the highest quality standards.

What all of our products have in common – let it be a simple lighting in a fridge or a control cabinet with many thousands of connection points – is that they are all constructed by responsible engineers and technicians who are all focused on and dedicated to mapping the needs of the customers and realizing those in production. Upon preparing production documentation, our experienced professionals are not only extra careful to clarify all faults or ambiguous marks or descriptions (if any), but they also make recommendations to the customer for rationalization and cost efficiency. And this attitude is a clear proof of the proficiency our partners respect about us. Another common trait all our products share is that each and every cable harness and other pieces of equipment are tested both against our internal standards and customer demands.

Custom wiring

Initially we processed wires and cables to serve our own needs. Now we do not only produce for ourselves but for our partners as well. Depending on load, production is performed in two or three shifts. Since we work with an ever expanding pool of the most modern machinery (Komax, Schleuninger), we can manage to cut or strip wires and cables of diameters ranging from 0.2 to 35 mm², to fix connectors or plugs on cable ends, perform custom labelling, tagging or even doubling. And with more than 20 pcs of Schleuninger and Stocko automatic jacking machines, we manage to process a huge number of connectors. We guarantee excellent quality by monitoring each process along production.
Since we constantly keep on developing our machinery and equipment according to customer needs, so does the variety of our processed and supplied cables keep growing as well.

Assembly of fittings

First, we purchase the components we need for production from domestic and European suppliers. Then, we assemble them on our production cells which were developed by the principles of Lean manufacturing. The next step is testing our products with our proprietary electric measuring system, providing them with unique barcodes for identification, and finally, packaging them according to customer specifications. Printed circuit boards (PCB) are produced in an environment secured by ESD protection. We use a proprietary visualization system for production, which gives on-line feedback to our workers on the results of their work and also provides data for the management system.

Production of standardized control cabinets

There is an increasing demand for the production of control cabinets for industrial refrigerators and other equipment both on the domestic market and on international level. Keeping up with this trend, our monthly production output measures up to 900 pcs of medium sized control cabinets. But of course, it is not all about production: each time we send our partner a quote with specific details within 24 hours, and (in case of an appropriate prior notice), we supply the control cabinet within 15 days. We test each control cabinet for its connections and from orders exceeding 10 pieces, we randomly pick a cabinet and inspect it "to the last bolt and nut". Due to this practice, we constantly receive high quality scores from our partners. However, the best feedback is our long history of cooperation with our partners on an ever expanding scale.

Production of electrical equipment

Beside serial production of standardized cabinets for our own purposes and for other companies, we produce special custom distribution- and control cabinets as well.
The quality of the equipment produced by us is ensured by our highly qualified team of engineers working on the preparation phase and our experienced technicians and electricians as well as the automated preparation of distribution panels, our self-manufactured custom wiring and full functional testing (when necessary). We supply the pieces of equipment with relevant measurement protocol and documentation on demand.

Research and Development

The purpose of the research and development activity of Kód KFT is to improve the quality of its existing products as well as to develop marketable new products.  Quality improvement.

Airimage

AirImage is a controlling system for gathering measurement data. A system may consist of one or more (max. 16) AirImage devices connected in a network and communicating with each other via encrypted channels. Configuration can be completed using the AirImage application which processes measurement data and forwards them to the control units of the equipment. Its field of application can be temperature- or ventilation control.

No TCP/IP network settings are required to the implementation of the AirImage network, not even an IP address! To implement a network, only an encryption key needs to be set on each device which needs to be the same for all devices that communicate with each other within the network.

The AirImage device is capable of making measurements through its analogous inputs, gathering measurement data, and controlling devices through its digital outputs based on the measurement data.

In its present setup, the AirImage system consists of two types of devices. The first type is a plastic-covered device. This device does not have a controlling function, it is only capable of making measurements. For this purpose, four sensors (temperature, humidity, carbon dioxide and airborne particle counter) are built in it.

The other type is an OEM device which can be built in any equipment as a control panel. The device has 8 inputs and 3 outputs, any of which can be used either for measuring or controlling. Plus, it can receive data via the network from the first type of device with the four sensors.

Both the hardware and software of the above products are products of our own research and development. Their basis is an embedded target computer with Linux operating system and an operating software which was developed using the Java programming language, therefore it can run on many PC platforms.

Quality improvement

IMFR

The IMFR system is a proprietary software to support the final testing of electrical components.

Visualization

A system for measuring and displaying the efficiency of production. It enables the constant monitoring of production quality and the implementation of necessary actions. The system is constructed with a proprietary software which processes the data supplied by the production equipment.

Sentinel

A dispatcher support system for receiving and processing incoming messages of alarm systems via telephone lines, capable of displaying the data of alarms as well.

Environmental Protection

Environmental protection is a high priority and an integral part of the corporate strategy of Kód KFT. Keeping this in mind, not only do we keep all the laws and regulations relevant to our products or activities, but we are also highly devoted to the constant improvement of our environmental efficiency. To achieve this goal, we constantly keep on assessing and analysing environmental factors and impacts, and we determine the necessary corrective and preventive actions according to their priority.

In order to provide a framework for our environment protection activities and to meet the criteria of constant development, one of the main objectives of Kód KFT is the implementation of the ISO 14001:2005 Environmental Management System.

We ensure the environmentally conscious attitude of our employees by providing them trainings on environmental protection and using adequate internal communication.

Environmental protection appears as a high priority task in all fields and individual processes of Kód KFT's activity. Minimizing environmental load, using alternative energy resources and processing the raw materials we use in the most environmentally friendly way – these guidelines all make up an integral part of our corporate philosophy.
