Saving Manufacturing Costs with Design and Engineering
Ohio Steel wanted to offer a plastic trailer body that could carry 750 pounds of dirt. We designed and engineered a completely new dump cart design for them to sale at major home center retailers. In addition to complete 3D CAD design, our engineers used F.E.A. software to refine the design and meet the strength requirements without over-engineering it. The benefit being a stronger part that saved manufacturing cost. Our F.E.A. models passed the retailer’s field-testing specifications and gave Ohio Steel the confidence to proceed to production.
