Their hard work and commitment in these years have created a strong benchmark for them in the industry, given the value advantage of pioneership in their competent journey.

They are one of the major players in India today, successfully catering the engineering industry in precision machining domain with a long list of customers within India and abroad.Apart from that, they are also one the leading manufacturers of high-mix, low-volume custom designed mould bases of high precision with scope for total interchangeability of inserts. In addition, theyalso specialise in high precision manufacturing of machined components and sub-assemblies for export to industrially advanced countries.

As like other standard tool rooms, operation scheduling for them become a complex task as each set of tools hasa unique operation sequence against the components to be produced by attaching priorities depending on various technical aspects, production methods, run time instructions, dimensional tolerances, sub-assembly, final-assembly and trial settings etc.

Over a period of time, as a company with quality drive and commitment to deliver on time, Vishal Precisions also had to take a final call to build constructive strategies to address knowledge-based scheduling system. This utilisesthe quantitative factorssuch as estimated/actual operation times,due dates and the resource availability, as well as non-quantitative factors, such as the nature of the order, the importance of the tool, the relative priorities of various tool components, etc.

The intensive and focused search of such comprehensive solutions made Vishal Precision Team to explore a trial implementation of shop plan, the Tool Room ERP developed by CAD Macro Design and Solutions. After finding reasonable progress, it was decided by the Vishal Team to implement shop plan fully so as to reach out a next order harmony in the operation in terms of improved forecasting, priority based scheduling and comprehensive day reports.
