What did the Ortur marketing team do during the year?
As can be seen from the development history of Ortur, the company has the ability to continuously and rapidly evolve, and its continuous evolution direction matches the growing needs of consumers.
After the Laser Master 2 Pro was released, the response was not as enthusiastic as the Laser Master 2, and the marketing team realized that Ortur needed a new breakthrough. As more and more regular users start buying laser engravers, Ortur needs to understand their needs in order to gain more market share.
Ortur's marketing team carefully organizes and summarizes customer feedback. In addition, the marketing team proactively contacted a number of customer representatives to conduct in-depth market research. Based on the market research data, the marketing team and the R&D team developed a plan. And cooperate with many well-known websites and companies to jointly promote and operate the latest Ortur Laser Master 3.
What did the Ortur R&D team do this year?
Faced with a 67-page market research report by the marketing department, Ortur's R&D department was both anxious and excited.
If these pain points are to be solved systematically, the R&D investment will reach tens of millions of yuan, and the R&D team needs to be tripled.
In addition, to fully overcome these technical points and integrate them into the new generation of laser engraving machines, it will take more than one year of research and development cycle.
But if they do, Outur's new laser master will be unique.
In the end, Ortur held a general meeting and quickly decided to increase R&D investment to meet the new needs of customers.
Increasing investment in R&D is not just about hiring and spending money. The hardest part is that Ortur was very efficient when there were only 10 engineers in Ortur's R&D team, but when it grew to more than 40 engineers, they found that our engineers were spending more and more time communicating.
Ultimately, by introducing the IPD (Integrated Product Development) model invented by IBM, Ortur ensured continuous and efficient R&D.
What has the Ortur supply chain team done over the past year?
For the supply chain team, such a breakthrough product also brings great difficulties to material procurement, especially some special customized materials require special cooperation between Ortur and suppliers, and this kind of research and development is in cost, time and results. There are uncertainties.
Sometimes Ortur has to work with several suppliers at the same time, coordinating joint research and development of a material, to ensure that there are different solutions and to select the most suitable one.
For example, for a 10W laser module, the core parameter requirements given by the marketing team are that the optical energy density must be more than 1.5 times that of the ordinary 10W laser module on the market, and the weight must be less than 250 grams. Compared with the ordinary 10W module, the weight exceeds 400 grams.
Not all laser module suppliers can meet Ortur's specifications. With most of the laser modules on the market being very heavy, Ortur had to work with our AVL supplier to develop a 10W (high optical power density) laser module weighing only 250 grams to ensure high power without sacrificing engraving speed and stability.
With higher costs, multiplied efforts, and enough time and patience, Ortur's supply chain team has done a great job.
What the Ortur production team has done over the past year
In order to let consumers get stable and easy-to-use products, the production team takes the rigorous and meticulous PMC department as the brain, the professional and reliable engineering department as the heart, the diligent warehousing and logistics department as the blood, and the serious and fair quality management of the immune system. department.
In this organizational management system, the most important thing is to break down the barriers between departments, let each department in the team communicate efficiently, cooperate actively, discuss problems case by case, and finally present the results perfectly.
None of this happened overnight. Ortur's production team has gone through 4 years of honing, spending a lot of time and money, improving the internal operations bit by bit. It will not enter its most mature state until 2021, and then burst into shocking power in the production of a new generation of laser masters.
Finally, with the efforts of all Otto staff, on June 28th, a new generation of laser masters - the unparalleled laser master 3 - was released. Compared with competing products on the market, it has achieved a full range of technological leadership, faster, smarter and safer.
