[Processing Case Study] Cost Reduction in Prototyping for Printed Circuit Board and Electronic Device Manufacturers
Established design and manufacturing processes in the prototyping phase! A case of reduced lead time through flexible material processing.
We would like to introduce a case study where the manufacturing of high-precision jigs for the printed circuit board and electronic equipment industry has been streamlined, reducing prototype costs to about one-third. In the company, using stainless steel for the production of jigs for robots resulted in high material costs, leading to significant expenses with each prototype. By focusing on balancing cost and precision, we were able to optimize cost, quality, and speed by proposing prototypes made from iron to keep initial costs down. 【Case Overview】 ■ Background: High-cost and high-difficulty stainless steel processing became a production bottleneck. ■ Solution: Use iron materials during the prototype stage and transition to full production after confirming precision. ■ Effect: Optimization of cost, quality, and speed. ■ Equipment Used: Universal Compact Machining Center (5-axis indexing) ・ Model: U500Xd1 ・ Manufacturer: Brother *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
