Case Study: VAVE and Should Costing – Escalator Cost Reduction

When a leading escalator manufacturer sought to cut costs without compromising safety or quality, they turned to Goken for support through Value Analysis/Value Engineering (VAVE) and Should Costing methodologies. The goal was to reduce the overall cost of the escalator by at least 10% across multiple modules, while preserving durability and performance

Insert Molding of Wire Loop for Enhanced Strength in Plastic Pressure Release Valves

An emergency pressure release valve in an electric motor’s battery system was consistently failing at the center due to a structurally weaker section. Despite increasing part thickness and adding multiple ribs, failures persisted. This weakness caused deformation under high gas pressure, leading to the plunger sticking in its housing. If the pressure could not be released, the battery risked catastrophic failure.

Case Study: Tackling Road Noise in Vehicle Development

In combustion engine vehicles, engine sounds masked the hum and resonance from the road. But in quieter electric drivetrains, road noise became a noticeable comfort factor. Reducing it — without adding weight or cost — became essential for performance and customer satisfaction.

Case Study: NVH CAE Development – Nearshore Model

Automotive manufacturers face increasing pressure to design vehicles that meet stringent performance standards, especially in areas like Noise, Vibration, and Harshness (NVH). Achieving this requires Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE), an intensive process that relies on advanced simulation tools, high-performance computing, and highly specialized engineers.

Solving Premature Wear in Front Aero Shield: A GMT-Based Approach

When a leading OEM faced a 50% premature failure rate in its front aero shield, it was clear that the existing PET-based solution, while effective against stone chipping, lacked the abrasion resistance to survive real-world road conditions. From rough urban streets to snow-packed highways, the shield was wearing out far sooner than expected, leading to costly warranty claims and undermining customer satisfaction.

Beyond Storage: Redefining the Sunglass Holder Problem

In the North American market, the roof console sunglasses holder was only capable of holding up to 30 percentile glasses. This meant it could not store many of the larger, modern styles of sunglasses in use today. The issue was not just limited to storage capacity, but also fall out, while opening the holder and retention, in extreme uphill driving conditions.
