Delivery time reduction trough component optimization and production-ready design
Task and challenge
Customer | Industry | Product | Used material |
---|---|---|---|
Franatech Aquaculture GmbH | Energy industry | Deep-sea sensor mounting | Polyamide (PA12) |
The first prototype produced by Franatech did not yet meet the requirements for the mounting, making further optimization of the component necessary.

cost reduction
Solution
The prototype was analysed and evaluated to optimize the sensor mount. This was followed by a detailed consultation regarding the design adaptation. After the part optimization and production-ready design, the deep-sea sensor mounts were then 3D printed.
Success
- Digitization, 3D printing, post-processing and successful testing of the first parts
- Development of a standard QA process with experiences from the automotive and medical industry
