Creating Cost-Effective Extruded Aluminum Product Solutions

Creating Cost-Effective Extruded Aluminum Product Solutions
Speaker: Andy Tomczyk, Erbsloeh Aluminum Solutions | Hosted by Machine Design
Cost is always an important consideration when developing or updating products. But how do you know how your design decisions impact component costs? And, how do you know if the lowest price component will lead to the most cost-effective solution … or whether a more costly component will lead you to an improved cost result?
This webinar explores the cost structure of extruded aluminum components, and suggests strategies that can lead to a cost-optimized result. We’ll review the cost alternatives in profile design and in fabricating the resultant extrusion to get a cost-efficient solution.
When you attend this webinar you will:
· Understand the elements that contribute to the cost of extruded aluminum components
· Learn how your design decisions can impact those cost elements
· See how design features you incorporate can improve cost effectiveness
· Learn how fabrication decisions can improve cost control … and often lower cost
