Concurrent Engineering: Cost advantages from conception to production
The TITAL® engineering team makes 100% of it's casting technology expertise available to our customers to find the best engineering and cost effective solutions. The concurrent engineering and joint product development process is key to maximum cost savings along the entire product value chain.
As a project moves from development into production, TITAL® assembles a cross-functional team from Sales, Engineering, Quality and Manufacturing to ensure a smooth and seamless product transition. Customer communication is a constant priority through-out the transition and becomes permanent in the production manufacturing environment.
As an example of the concurrent engineering process, a tail rotor gearbox was converted from an aluminium sand casting to an aluminium investment casting. This project resulted in significant cost savings and a weight reduction of more than 20%.
