With a strong emphasis on innovation and customer satisfaction, Auke aims to deliver solutions that meet the evolving demands of the market. This case study details a recent project with a European client requiring custom-designed metal baskets for cleaning mechanical parts, demonstrating Auke's commitment to quality and client-oriented service.
The client, a renowned provider of industrialization, integration, and smart manufacturing services tailored for advanced industrial sectors, approached Auke with specific requirements for metal cleaning baskets. Having a rich history in smart manufacturing, the client sought a partner capable of delivering high-quality, durable, and efficient solutions to enhance their operational processes. They highlighted the necessity for effective cleaning solutions that could withstand rigorous usage while adhering to precise specifications.
The client specified the following requirements for the metal cleaning baskets:
Dimensions: 365mm x 215mm x 200mm
Material: Carbon steel
Hole Sizes: Three different hole sizes of 2.5mm, 5mm, and 10mm
Weight Capacity: 25 kg
Special Requests: with handles
Auke recognized this basket as a foundational product within their range and understood that meeting these specifications presented no significant challenges from a technical perspective.
Once Auke received the specifications from the client, the design team quickly got to work. They understood that delivering a high-quality product aligned with the client's requirements was critical to ensuring client satisfaction and building a lasting partnership:
For the construction of the baskets, the team opted for cold-galvanized carbon steel. This material was chosen for its durability and resistance to corrosion, which are pivotal for cleaning applications in industrial settings.
To meet the required weight capacity of 25 kg, the designers selected a sheet thickness of 1.2mm for the cold-rolled steel plate. This thickness would provide the necessary strength while maintaining an optimal weight for handling.
To enhance the structural integrity of the baskets, the design included reinforcement ribs on the sides and bottom. This addition ensured that the baskets could endure heavy loads without deformation over time, significantly prolonging their lifespan and air flow for cleaning efficiency.
After developing an initial design proposal, Auke promptly shared the detailed drawings with the client:
The client reviewed the design and provided feedback, confirming that the specifications aligned with their requirements.
Although the client initially did not request a prototype, Auke’s sales team recommended the production of samples. They emphasized the importance of visualizing the product’s quality and testing its performance before committing to a large-scale production order. This proactive approach strongly resonated with the client, showcasing Auke’s dedication to customer satisfaction.
With the go-ahead from the client, Auke initiated the sample production process:
