The Problem Our customer had a very large contract to supply Decking Panels for Stadium surrounds and seating areas at the 2012 London Olympic Games. The design of the Corner Connecting Cleats, whilst structurally sound, involved a complex mix of laser profiling, pressing, machining and welding. Consequently it was expensive and time consuming to make. |
|
The Solution We designed a one-piece pressing containing all of the functional requirements, but requiring a far less complex manufacturing route. This has resulted in over 50% cost saving, and a much shorter lead-time. |
