[Proposal Example] Material Change

Improvement by changing the material of equipment parts with high wear frequency! Contributed to approximately 40% reduction in man-hours.

Here is an example of a proposal for a material change. Both the fixed stage and the drive components used in the packaging line are made of stainless steel, and particularly the drive parts experience significant wear. When the fixed stage wears out, it is made of cast material, which incurs considerable time and cost for repairs or replacement. Therefore, we proposed changing the drive components to a strong resin material. This reduced the wear on the fixed stage and significantly decreased the frequency of replacements, and the replacement parts became less expensive than stainless steel due to being made of resin. [Challenges] - Both the fixed stage and the drive components used in the packaging line are made of stainless steel, with the drive parts experiencing significant wear. - When the fixed stage wears out, it incurs considerable time and cost for repairs or replacement due to being made of cast material. *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.
