Customer Issues and Needs

Example of problem solving by changing the shape and material of the collar

This is a case in which changing the shape and material of the collar became an issue.
The customer was asked to consult with us about a problem they were facing: they wanted to reduce the weight (SWCH10R).
The background of wanting to reduce weight was to change from steel to aluminum in order to improve fuel efficiency.

Proposal contents and effects

Example of problem solving by changing the shape and material of the collar

In response to a specific problem, we proposed to make a thinner hole and increase the thickness of the single wall, because the part made of A6061 heat-treated aluminum alloy was not strong enough. The proposal was to change the Φ4 through hole in the Φ5 section to a Φ3.5 through hole in the Φ5 section.
As a result, we were able to meet the customer's request, and the customer was satisfied with our proposal.
