Hoyer

Tasks

Hoyer needed assistance in standardizing the axles for their brake motors, which came in four different types and several sizes.

Solutions

To address Hoyer's challenges, idoc has contributed:

• Designing axles for brake motors in various sizes and with brake types from four different suppliers.
• Standardizing the axles, so that a limited number of different axle variants can cover all the brake motors.
• Assisting with setting up BOM (Bill of Materials) lists
• Assisting with the design and guidance for the existing brake motors.
• Assisting with the design and guidance for specially designed brake motors.

Results

idoc's contributions mean that a limited number of axle variants can now cover a large number of brake motors, leading to the standardization of Hoyer's brake motor program. This standardization further reduces manufacturing costs and minimizes the chance of design errors.
