Case Study: "Plastic Bearings Used in Steering Columns"
The bearing design with an integrated mounting clip shape reduces the number of parts and assembly man-hours!
"The plastic bearings used in the steering column" have achieved results primarily in the customized design of the lower bearing and middle bearing sections. By integrating the mounting clip into the bearing design, we have realized a reduction in the number of parts and assembly labor. Consequently, secondary processing and riveting processes that were necessary for press-fitting into the counterpart components, such as shafts and jackets when using metal bearings, are no longer required. This allows for a total cost reduction. Additionally, it contributes to weight reduction and lower rotational torque. 【Features】 ■ Custom design support is available for the lower bearing and middle bearing sections. ■ The integration of the mounting clip shape into the bearing design reduces the number of parts and assembly labor. ■ Secondary processing and riveting processes that were necessary for press-fitting into the counterpart components, such as shafts and jackets when using conventional metal bearings, are also eliminated. ■ It contributes to weight reduction and lower rotational torque. *For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.
