Seamless Market Expansion: Re-Engineering Tissue Converting Machine to Metric Units for Enhanced Compliance and Customer Satisfaction
Challenge
- They faced challenges in meeting the customer expectations and market demand for metric-based measurements and it’s been crucial for customer satisfaction and market competitiveness.
- Re-Engineer imperial units-based tissue converting machine to metric units for meeting requirements of new geography
Our Solutions
- Studied existing design in imperial units – 1,025 drawings.
- Developed a ‘Design Guideline Document’ for Re-engineering covering:
- Selection of equivalent alternate material grade locally available in Europe. Rationalization of design to suit metric standards without compromising on design intent.
- Selection of alternate metric OEM parts and fasteners to meet specification of existing Imperial unit parts
- Fabrication of parts/custom parts: Redesigned to match mounting holes specifications for metric fasteners.
- Create 3D models and associative 2D drawings as per guideline document and Engineering
Results
- Enabled client expand reach to new geographies, increased topline and bottom-line, without losing bandwidth of client’s engineering team.
- Fast-track project by Design Group helped client in improving time to market by 3 months
