Cost reduction through material optimization and shape optimization using VA and VE for weight reduction.
This is an example of achieving cost reduction by lightweighting and reducing processing man-hours of MC block machining using VA and VE.
The shape that emphasizes strength and rigidity poses a problem in terms of weight, and simply machining it will lead to a significant increase in processing time and costs. Making the part in a square pipe shape, as in this case, is optimal for weight reduction, but the increase in processing time becomes an issue. ■ As a ONE POINT consideration, we took into account both material optimization and shape optimization for weight reduction through machining. ■ Original part information: Material: SS material, 60×70×150 square pipe shape with a thickness of 10t. ■ VA, VE content: Material: SS material → A5052S Weight reduction measures: By adopting a milling process with a depth of 10 from the square pipe shape, we achieved a significant reduction in processing time through the selection of materials that consider the reduction of cutting volume and machinability, leading to cost reduction.
