CONCURRENT ENGINEERING
Through all phases of engineering and production, Styberg engineers collaborate with customers to offer valuable considerations providing enhanced quality and important manufacturing perspective resulting in substantial cost savings and improved product reliability.
True component cost evaluation includes all the factors involved in total cost through warranty. |

WEIGHT REDUCTION - Splined Casting
Redesign was needed in a cast splined part to reduce weight and production costs and still hold all the spline dimensions.
Producing the part from coil stock and utilizing the Grob process reduced the weight from a 32 pound splined casting to a processed piece weighing 12 pounds, while still holding all the spline dimensions; resulting in a lighter product with lower production costs. |

MECHANICAL COMPONENTS - Tank Wheel
An existing tank wheel needed lighter weight but higher tensile strength. The life of the wheel depended on the mechanical design and mechanical strength.
Tapping on engineering expertise and tooling knowledge of ferrous and some non-ferrous materials, a design was developed using a formed material in different patterns to allow for the use of thinner materials (reducing weight by 10 pounds) and increasing the tensile strength by 100%.

STRENGTH IMPROVEMENT - Mounting Bracket
A heavy duty mounting bracket was a 3 piece-welded design which needed greater strength in critical areas.
Redesigning to a one piece construction from coil steel resulted in fewer manufacturing operations and the increased strength of a single-piece component.

COST REDUCTION thru Process Simplification, Dimensional Consideration
Process simplification and dimensional consideration can lead to cost savings. Designing for reduced number of operations and less dimensional errors allow lower tool costs, less inspection time and faster flow-thru-operations time. |
