Power tools of next generation with Bossard
Located in Nanjing, China, our customer is a company that excels in the integration of research and development, manufacturing, and sales of power tools and smart outdoor garden equipment. Their dedication and expertise have earned them numerous honors and recognitions, including the titles of a national green factory and a national industrial design center.
Opportunity
To boost the capability of a well-known power tool, our engineering team engaged with our customer R&D department in Expert Assortment Analysis and Expert Teardown projects. Throughout this collaborative process, thread-forming screws and self-tapping screws have been extensively utilized on the product shell.
Challenges
In their day-to-day production processes of power tools at
their Nanjing plant, our customer faces several challenges. Our engineers have
identified the following key challenges:
1. Multiple types of products to manage
2. Complex assembly process in production
3. Fasteners have a risk of failure in the whole machine rework, such as cam-out
To address these challenges and prioritize our customer's
needs, we have taken decisive actions.
Actions taken
Through daily visits and engineering interactions, we were able to hold a technical seminar to train their engineers focusing on improving design efficiency and reducing risks by utilizing thread-forming screws. We provided technical clarification on the superior performance of ecosyn®-plast compared to self-tapping screws, which effectively resolved product failures.
Customer benefits
Our engineering services have significantly increased
customer satisfaction and opened doors to special opportunities. The use of
special self-tapping screws, specifically designed for plastic parts like
ecosyn®-plast, is resulting in a notable 20% reduction in rework. Additionally,
due to Bossard's advanced solutions, the customer has achieved an impressive
25% decrease in the total cost of the assembly process each year.
