In the article on clous, Konstruktionspraxis reports on how the problem of cost pressure for manufacturing companies comes about and to what extent clous starts there.
Cost pressure arises from various factors. On the one hand, sequentially organized design processes take up a lot of time and therefore money. On the other hand, companies in the mechanical engineering sector complain about a lack of skilled workers.
This is where we come in with clous and the idea of breaking down complex design tasks into many individual project modules. By shortening the time from product idea to prototype test, an enormous time reduction results.
The unique selling proposition of clous is elaborated in the article, the medium-term goal to become a whole platform economy is given and classified by Professor Rainer Stark as quite realistic.
