[Case Study] Successful Miniaturization and Weight Reduction of Enclosures with Ultra-Low Profile Screws
We introduce a case where the ultra-low head screw "310 Slim" successfully contributed to the miniaturization and weight reduction of vehicle-mounted chargers.
We would like to introduce a case where we proposed replacing the truss screws with the ultra-low head screw '310 Slim' in the automotive industry. With truss screws, the protruding head of the screw posed a challenge as it would get caught and not fit properly. After the proposal, assembly could be done without interference with other components, and when placing the housing inside the vehicle, the head no longer got caught. [Overview of the Challenge] - The size of this compact vehicle is smaller than conventional products, and each component is required to be miniaturized and lightweight. - Although truss screws are typically used for fastening, the design calculations indicated that the protruding head would interfere with other components inside the housing. - The space on the vehicle side for inserting the housing is also narrow, and with truss screws, the protruding head would get caught and not fit. *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.
