Customer: SnapOn Medical / Zimmer
Problem:
Customer was experiencing unacceptable scrap rates and cycle times during the assembly of their proprietary surgical drill. The customer was also facing an expedited delivery date for their largest order to date.
Solution:
After studying the customers actual assembly process, Biach's Industrial Design and Mechanical Engineering Specialists created an interactive presentation that depicted the new tool and operational sequence to assemble the surgical drills. Upon approval of the concept, mechanical engineers went to work on the details. The design allowed for sequential or simultaneous assembly of all surgical drill components.
