Operational Impact
The new hydraulic clamp design is able to carry double the load of the legacy design while being 5% lighter. | |
The clamp allows for easier storage and fitting with one hand by the technician, and it is tearable after installation. | |
The team developed a replicable and reusable methodology to create libraries of high-performance 3D printable parts. | |
Quantitative Benefit
Manufacturing over 1,200 units on-demand per day at a unit cost of $1.25. | |
The new design is 2x the stiffness of the legacy design. | |
