Customer was in need of a Domestic Source that could improve manufacturing lead-times while providing a competitive price position.

To get there...Exactec had free reign to improve the production techniques and consider alternative materials. The only condition being that the general appearance, size, and function of the original design could not change.

Exactec’s solution was to minimize the complexity of the original design by: Reducing the number of component piece parts necessary Improving the manufacturing methods of assembly Down-gauging the materials used to minimize the material cost element

In the end...Exactec provided exactly what the customer was looking for with the added bonus of a better function and cleaner appearance.
