Process Planning and Automation Services

Process planning and automation have been practiced since the early days of manufacturing. Process planning is used to make optimal use of resources to reduce the time to market, improve product quality, increase production efficiency and cut production costs. With increasing competition and reducing demand, it is necessary to automate and optimize various elements of a manufacturing process. Optimal Consulting provides process planning and automation services to many companies in the world.

Piping systems in industries, automobiles, locomotives, marine vessels form the circulation system for various fluids. Well thought out and efficiently laid piping systems help in reduction of space utilization for setup, increased accessibility, enhanced safety and easier maintenance. It is imperative to visualize piping layouts using CAD tools before installation for specific purpose to garner above advantages.

Outsource Value Engineering Services

Cut material cost by 10% through topological optimization. Save manufacturing cost by switching to a fabricated structure from a cast structure. Increase power to weight ratio by using a less dense material (structurally validated with finite element analysis). Decrease labor cost through redesign of assembly fixtures and increase throughput. Increase safety in the assembly process through better ergonomics of assembly process. Reduce waste and recycling of raw material through better design and optimal placement of runners and risers in a mould. These are only a few examples of what some of our customers have done while using our value engineering services.
