THE SOLUTION

Texmo’s unique process optimisation techniques combined with engineering experience helped zero down on the key process steps and parameters to be used for the manufacture of this component.

We were able to identify risk areas with the casting and machining process requirements, and mitigate them with solutions ahead of time. This ensured that we were able to produce parts that were fit for purpose and more importantly
in a repeatable manner.

THE IMPACT

This helped our customer bring stability to their supply and quality. Through process optimisation, we were able to reduce the delivered costs of this component by 8%.
