It's always about finding creative solutions

Here in this impressive, busy city, Exyte is not building just any factory, but one of the largest and most advanced semiconductor facilities in Malaysia. "This is an extremely challenging brownfield construction project," says Anthony Brown, Global Director for Off-Site Manufacturing (OSM). "There's no place to store components, the road is narrow and must not be blocked."

At the Shanta Sriram Tech Park of Hyderabad, India's fourth largest city and one of the subcontinent's major technology hubs, Design Manager Saravanan Natarajan and his colleagues at Exyte's subsidiary DES create 3D designs of the semiconductor facility's OSM components. Based on their modeling, project teams in Singapore then manufacture the components. "We're modeling, designing, and calculating for a facility a few thousand kilometers away," says Natarajan. "It only works because Exyte is a truly global company. Collaboration and communication allow us to get together as one big team even though we might be thousands of miles apart. Exyte’s strategic global footprint makes it easier for us to succeed on such a complex and fast-track project," he adds. 

 
"It’s great to see that the engineering design work that we are doing here at DES in India is being fabricated and installed elsewhere with a high degree of quality. The success of this approach will certainly provide great value to Exyte’s clients,” Natarajan says.

It started with an empty hall

On the western outskirts of the vibrant city-state of Singapore, Workshop Manager Ng Aik Beng, and his team of nearly 70 workers are assembling spools for the cooling system for the semiconductor factory in a workshop. Around 1,000 stainless steel and PVC pipes up to ten meters long are installed here into steel frames – designed largely by DES. 

The workers, in their blue protective suits and yellow helmets, carry out their work routinely and quickly, bolting together steel frames. There is a focused atmosphere and the team works like a well-oiled machine. It is hard to believe that just a few months ago, neither the workshop nor the team existed. 

"We set up this workshop with all the workers especially for this project. When we started a couple of months ago, we only had an empty hall," says Aik Beng.
