[Case Study] Successful Miniaturization and Weight Reduction of Enclosures with Ultra-Low Head Screws

We introduce a case where we successfully achieved miniaturization and weight reduction of the housing for a car charger using the ultra-low head screw "310 Slim."

We would like to introduce a case where we proposed replacing Truss screws with the ultra-low head screw '310 Slim' in the automotive industry. With Truss screws, the protruding head of the screw would get caught and could not be inserted, which was a challenge. After the proposal, assembly could be done without interference with other parts, and when inserting the housing into the vehicle, the head no longer got caught. [Overview of the Challenge] - The size of this compact vehicle has been reduced compared to conventional products, and each component is required to be smaller and lighter. - Although Truss screws are usually used for fastening, the design calculations indicated that the protruding head would interfere with other parts inside the housing. - The space on the vehicle side for inserting the housing is also narrow, and with Truss screws, the protruding head would get caught and could not be inserted. *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.
