By replacing aluminum with a thermoplastic, Elausa was looking to reduce cost, part weight and improve ease of manufacturing, all while maintaining an equivalent level of thermal conductivity and ensuring comparable performance. This combined with the design freedom, weight reduction, and cost advantages of thermoplastics, opens up the possibility to use them for metal replacement. Next to lower density, design optimization for the use of thermally conductive materials is key for the weight and cost saving that our Avient Design specialists provide as an additional service to our customers.

These ‘pirates’ copied the manufacturer’s products and sold the copies to unsuspecting customers, which not only ate into revenue but also raised the cost of sales and the potential for unjustified product responsibility issues. As a result, these legal costs became a significant and completely unforeseen drain on finances. Revenue increased, and the cost to fight lawsuits sank.

SUP pro paddles are typically equipped with carbon fiber shafts, but this option was too cost-prohibitive for the mid-level market. And Carbonerro also needed to keep costs down to produce a more economical solution for the non-professional enthusiast. An unsinkable stand up paddle with improved stiffness and performance, and an overall cost savings to both the consumer and the company.

|A team of engineers at this firm was looking for a way to reduce the manufacturing cost of its line of solar-powered lights made using painted metal. Most importantly, the plastic light had to have lower manufacturing costs than the painted metal light. THE IMPACT Moving from painted metal to pre-colored Geon M5705 material reduced Smart Hero’s manufacturing costs by over $300,000 annually, due to lower scrap rates and the elimination of painting.
