In product development, design for manufacturing is vital. Our team helps design products that consider suppliers’ manufacturing processes and capabilities. We can improve efficiency, minimize waste, and reduce costs by identifying potential issues in the design phase.
Our team works closely with clients throughout product development, providing guidance and advice at every stage. Design for manufacturing expertise enables us to bring ideas to reality quickly and efficiently. See examples of our successful collaborations with our clients below.
Kitchen mixer
Our maybe most successful collaboration was with our customer Varimixer A/S to develop and design a high-quality mixer for professionals, the Teddy mixer.
Teddy is a powerful, professional 5-litre mixer for small daily tasks in the bakery, kitchen or laboratory. Intelligent Danish design with a focus on ergonomics, hygiene and ease of cleaning, and the quality to handle challenging work year after year.
Global Industries has been responsible for the purchasing, production, quality control and assembly of the Teddy mixer for over a decade. This is an excellent example of what our collaboration can accomplish.
Precision casting makes manufacturing simpler
An excellent example of design for manufacturing would be the transformation of what was previously bent and welded into one cast part.
Lost-wax casting is an effective method of creating intricate metal designs and complex metal components. This technology can produce pieces with a high degree of accuracy and precision with a minimum amount of finishing work. A lost-wax casting process involves creating a ceramic mould from a wax pattern to design a part or product.
It is ideal for creating complex geometries, thin walls, and internal cavities that are difficult or impossible to achieve using other casting techniques. The lost-wax casting process is also known as precision casting or investment casting.
Precision casting
The transition from machined aluminium to stainless steel casting presents numerous benefits for manufacturers seeking to improve product quality while reducing costs. By embracing this shift, businesses can experience significant cost savings, enhanced product quality, increased durability, and enhanced customization possibilities.
What before required four aluminium supports could be reduced to two stainless steel supports. The only machining needed is the two holes to meet the tolerance
Masterbike
We take pride in our commitment to excellence and our ability to turn visionary ideas into reality. One such example is our involvement in the development and design of the Masterbike.
From the inception of the project, our team were there every step of the way, ensuring that every detail was meticulously executed. We have worked tirelessly to find the best manufacturers who share our dedication to quality and precision.
In the case of the Masterbike, our involvement extended beyond just sourcing the right manufacturers. We were actively involved in coordinating the entire supply chain, from production to delivery. Our team worked closely with the designers and engineers to guarantee that each component fit perfectly, resulting in a masterful final product. That’s why we leave no stone unturned to ensure a seamless process for our clients.
Global Industries is proud to have played a vital role in the development and design of the Masterbike. It represents the collaborative effort between our team, the manufacturers, and the designers to create something truly extraordinary.
