Tiivistelmä
The aim of the thesis was to seek and collect improvement ideas for Biograte product and evaluate the practicality, benefits, and downsides of those ideas. To collect the ideas the product was split into parts. These parts were evaluated separately with the fishbone diagram method to find the potential issues.
Based on the distinguished issues, solutions were sought based on existing solutions at KPA Unicon, suggestions from co-workers and new solutions found during the literature study. The solutions were sketched with Solidworks CAD program to visualize them for better understanding and quotation process to get the final de-sign and manufacturing drawings.
As a result of the thesis work several improvement ideas were found and combinations to solve different problems presented, along with a rough timetable how the solutions could be implemented and approximate costs for implementation. The work of collecting the solutions, sketching, and planning the order and costs of implementation was a good process to go through, because it required to observe one of the Biograte sub systems from up close and have the results of that process recorded and analyzed for further use.
