What is it about?
A manufacturing concern producing sheet metal parts should be efficient to be profitable. It has been shown, by taking an U-clamp as a product,that the material of the product influences the productivity of the manufacturing concern. Use of Al alloy sheet against MS to make U clamps is desirable as long as it does not affect the part quality in service, while it can also improve productivity in manufacturing.

Why is it important?
Comparison of Al alloy sheet and MS sheet to make U clamp in terms of production rate while using the same production set-up. Data on production time & rate is presented.
Perspectives
Many scientific publications are research intensive and theoretical, but this article presents practical data that is relevant for the industrial people. It makes a point about the importance of productivity that can be complimented by analyzing the functional requirements of the part produced.
