Stairs and railguard optimization

Our product portfolio consists of a wide range of sizes. The smallest ones have a few meters footprint while the largest ones are similar to the size of a building. The operator and maintenance personnel of the product need to be able to access the different areas of the press in a safe manner. This is why both stairs and guardrails are a key feature of the products. 

Task description

The target of this thesis is to define a standard set of stairs and guardrails that are suitable for all product types. The new design should lead to an increased cross usage in between the different product size meaning some type of modularization is needed.

The thesis should consider different aspects of the supply chain, such as manufacturing, assembly, packing and shipping to gain a full cost comparison.

The design must also fulfil the applicable requirements in the machinery directive.

The concept should be optimized for an efficient assembly and minimum number of articles. The concept is expected to be designed in 3D CAD.

Suitable background

Master of Science with specialisation in Mechanical Engineering, Product Development, Production Development or similar.
