    Optimizing steel connection production, Rijssen,


    CASO DE ESTUDIO

    Netherlands
    With the installation of the fully automatic assembly and welding machine, Voortman redesigned all standard
    connections with IDEA StatiCa Connection to maximize production efficiency.

    Voortman steel group is one of the leading fabricators in the production of machines for the preparation, processing,
    and production of steel structures, details, and connections.

    Implementation of IDEA StatiCa Connection to their workflows decreases the consumption and handling of the material and
    the welding costs in comparison to the previously used approach. This went hand in hand with simplifying and speeding up
    the production process.

    Savings:

    End plates 25%


    Stiffeners 60% (not only the material but also fewer parts to be produced, handled and assembled)
    Welds 38% throat thickness, welding volume up to 70% (the welding volume determines the welding cost)
    Bolts 33%

    Weld and plate optimization, Mill tolerances, and accessibility are taken into account.
