1. structural optimization: based on the overall stress analysis, optimize the overall stress frame structure. Generally speaking, in terms of reducing costs, the weight problem should start from here. In addition, the feasibility of using low-cost materials depends on this calculation. Such as the chassis of the car body.
2. Center of gravity optimization: reasonably allocate the position of large pieces and adjust the fulcrum and center of gravity, including the center of gravity. Such as a loader boom. We should consider reducing the use of expensive materials such as cables on large equipment. If the center of gravity is adjusted reasonably, the non-stressed part can further cut corners and reduce the requirements for power.
3. Power and transmission optimization: after each movement is determined, choose the most efficient transmission combination as much as possible. If you want to save money on lubrication and hydraulic system, look here. Through the optimization of the above steps, the power demand of general equipment will be greatly reduced, so that the engine can save a lot of money.
4. Process and assembly optimization: from the design point of view, simplify the processing and assembly difficulty of parts. And the labor cost is reduced. Welding should also be considered here.
5. Electrical optimization: according to the cost, the pursuit of more concise procedures, electrical cabinets standardized and modular. It depends on this when debugging.
6. Small parts optimization: There is nothing to say. A good idea is a patent. If possible, remove non-standard items.
7. Appearance optimization: Make your product look more pleasing to the eye. If you have a bad taste, give it to an art student.
The above is only one direction. Make a plan according to your product. As far as possible from big to small.
