For all those who are concerned about the quality and cost of mass-produced parts for automobiles, robots, precision equipment, etc.
This is an example of a shaft shape change that became an issue.
The company was asked to make a cost reduction for the next generation of motor shafts, as product competitiveness to win global competition was urgently needed and cost reduction was essential.
In the conventional method, the press-fit point was done by cutting.
In response to this specific issue, we proposed that the shaft could be knurled to have the same functionality while reducing man-hours and improving productivity.
As a result, we were able to reduce man-hours and improve productivity while maintaining accuracy and functionality. As a result, we were able to reduce the cost by 40%, mass by 10%, and man-hours by 20% compared to the current cost by changing the shape.
The reduced cost of the product will give it a competitive advantage in the next generation of motor shafts.
A customer consulted us regarding cost reduction of shafts. We propose a VE case study by changing the drawings, which is our specialty, and replacing the cutting process.
