A case of cost reduction by selecting sheet metal shapes for MC blocks using VA and VE.
A significant cost reduction case through labor hour reduction by incorporating sheet metal processing into the MC cutting processing unit using SS material in VAVE.
Lightweighting and reducing processing steps of SS material block-shaped units through sheet metal fabrication. By maintaining rigidity with machining while converting unnecessary parts to sheet metal, we can reduce the number of components and processing steps, significantly contributing to cost reduction. Here is a sample of that. ONE POINT: For precision parts, machining is used, and if the processing accuracy can be relaxed for associated parts, considering sheet metal can open the path to cost reduction. This unit is a sample of a slide unit machined using a common proximity switch. If high precision is required for such a unit, machining is optimal, but if slightly relaxed precision is acceptable, it is also possible to convert the receiving part that holds the rod to sheet metal, as shown in the image. Additionally, if strength is not required for the parts holding the proximity switch, it is believed that manufacturing them through sheet metal processing can significantly reduce processing steps.

basic information
This is a cost reduction case that incorporates rigidity into the sheet metal design from a block shape using SS and SUS materials through VAVE. The key point for reducing machining costs is that when converting block-shaped parts into sheet metal, incorporating a bending structure increases rigidity and reduces processing man-hours, including those from integration. ■ Original Unit Information In this unit, the outer frame is made of SS material, with linear bearings and rods for reciprocating motion, and the sensor part is made from small SS materials. Materials: Block parts, etc., are made of SS material; the reciprocating parts are made of rods and linear bearings. ■ VA, VE Content The receiving part of the outer frame is designed in a sheet metal shape using SS material, and the sensor unit part is integrated with the outer frame. The catalog is published in PDF format, containing case details created in PowerPoint.
