Value engineering and corporate design RC 850 and RC 1250.
What did we achieve?
The company offered a wide range of product variants but was unable to market them competitively. In addition, lead times were too long. Following the Value Engineering project and implementation of the solutions, the results were:
Smart product improvements
The drying process was changed from heating the entire interior chamber to using hot-air nozzles that direct heat only at the products. This made the process more efficient and reduced the thermal load. As a result, a lightweight double-walled plastic lid with insulating foam became feasible, eliminating the need for gas springs.
In addition, the plastic lid became a distinctive design feature in the company’s corporate color, making it unnecessary to paint the remaining stainless-steel components.
