At Meconet, we believe that strong mutual commitment is at the core of a successful project. We would like to offer our customers design services producing tangible added value and a competitive advantage. We contribute to design in many ways, and this contribution is reflected in financial benefits for our customers.
Co-operation and open interaction are in a key position. We have extensive experience in many industry segments, and this multidisciplinary know-how is a valuable asset helping us to understand our customers’ needs.
Innovation Day lights up the lamp
A good example of our commitment to development of design is our Innovation Day concept. The Innovation Day offers our customers a unique opportunity for diving into the design process together with our experts.
“At occasions such as this, insights and new ideas emerge that would not have come forth at traditional project meetings.”
Through the Innovation Day co-operation, our customers are demonstrated how innovative thinking can lead to new opportunities for their business. In many cases, at occasions such as this, insights and new ideas emerge that would not have come forth at traditional project meetings.
Great expectations for the research project
Another of our significant contributions to enhancing customer benefits is our servo technology research project. In this connection, we studied the technical characteristics of our new servo controlled deep-drawing press and the possibilities for producing increasingly more challenging shapes. This means that our customers can design parts that are more complex and lighter, while also being durable, without a significant increase in costs.
“Our customers can design parts that are more complex and lighter.”
Owing to the new press, we can improve the durability of the parts and reduce the amount of material needed, which results in significant savings. With the new technology, we can also reduce the spring-back of the parts and improve dimensional accuracy. These advantages are directly reflected in the quality and competitiveness of our customers’ products.
Let’s start co-operation as early as possible
In terms of the outcome, our involvement in our customers’ planning process in as early stage as possible is of utmost importance. This enables us to jointly design components in which several functions have been combined, which results in cost savings, reduces the number of work stages, and alleviates environmental impact. In deep-drawn products, we can combine several functionalities in a single component, thereby reducing the number of constituents required and simplifying the production process.
“We challenge ourselves and our customers to think ‘out of the box’.”
Our customers’ solid commitment to co-operation on par with ourselves is of key importance. We challenge ourselves and our customers to think ‘out of the box’ and find new ways for approaching design and production. At Meconet, design is not mere technical implementation, but creative and innovative collaboration that results in added value for both the customer and ourselves.
Design of pressing products
What is servo pressing? What advantages does this method have? We have collected together some tips for product designers. We will tell what possibilities the servo pressing may provide for product design and how it can improve the manufacturing process and the end product.
