INITIAL REQUEST
- The proposed geometry for this piece consisted of a hexagonal head with a chip breaker.
- The proposed material for manufacturing the component was stainless steel.
OUR PROPOSAL
- We proposed designing the head in a circular shape with two chip breakers.
- For the external thread, we designed a self-tapping profile with threads in the form of ridges and an entry that facilitates self-centering when mounted in the composite.
- The material was replaced with steel with a static coating (720 hs. SST).
MUTUAL BENEFITS
- The new design resulted in a product that was less expensive to produce and assemble, without sacrificing its functionality in terms of torque and extraction requirements.
- With the new thread, we eliminated microencapsulation and ensured the robustness of the composite in case of a possible breakage.
- We optimized the cost of materials.

€80,000 PER YEAR
INITIAL REQUEST
- The client used 50 mm bushings machined from solid bar.
- Needed to develop a 200 mm long extension component.
OUR PROPOSAL
- We proposed using tube, reducing both ends.
- Functional toothing was formed based on axial load and client specifications.
MUTUAL BENEFITS
- A more cost-effective and efficient solution.
- Finished tube was more economical than solid bar stock.

€120,000 PER YEAR
INITIAL REQUEST
- The manufacturing of this piece was made from a solid bar stock with a lower thread along its entire length.
OUR PROPOSAL
- We proposed making it from a tube and conducting an extrusion process.
- We defined the functional length of the thread.
- We developed a machine to manufacture the piece in a single and quick operation without chip removal.
MUTUAL BENEFITS
- By transitioning from two processes to one, we reduced the production cost of the piece, resulting in significant savings on raw materials and energy, as well as the final price.
