The examples we present here! The president of Morphological Institute Canada has been directly involved in some cases mentioned on this page. Other cases were done by similar institutes in Europe, using CanMor's systematic innovation system. It is important for you to take encouragement from what people can achieve once they set their mind to become really innovative. For printable, extended information, see below.

We spotted a need to reduce cost in manufacturing small, complex electronic sensors: We replaced 80 expensive, manually selected components with 3 standard items that could be pre-mounted. Additionally we reduced handling in a chain of processes by 70%, partly by integrating immediate testing, which in turn reduced further processing of failing sensors. Comment: Seminar participants will learn Integral Innovation.

A world leading Measuring System did not meet a client's enhanced requirements. The manufacturer's own engineering division was not able to come up with solutions. The enhancement constrictions were due to a poor, preconceived design of some system components. We introduced a relatively simple, but revolutionary approach to solving the whole problem cluster at once. Practical system accuracy was improved tenfold, meaningless output signal were converted into meaningful numbers, and on-site calibration time reduced from several hours to 30 minutes. The client's expectations were exceeded.

We modified a mechanical component for 50% percent manufacturing cost savings. The specialists could not find the solution during a three year search. Value analysis and feasibility studies had dried out. Systematic Innovation lead to eliminating a three - stage forging process and the associated machinery.

Stadler started 1961 with manufacturing electric and diesel locomotives. 1989 the company employed 25 people. 1995 the company with now 65 people had its break through. They designed and built a new, modular suburban train with

Though extremely innovative, sound engineering principles guided design and construction. By eliminating prejudices and grown patterns of doing things, the approach

Licenses are sold to build the trains, as quantities of, say, 250 trains are outside Stadler’s manufacturing capacity.

Oil heated private households are large producers of air pollutants that contribute to global warming. Exhaust fumes must be cleaned more rigorously. The new boiler does just that. In addition, this 50 kg boiler requires only an ordinary plastic pipe for the cleaned "fumes" of 30 degrees Celsius. This low temperature indicates a very high efficiency of the heating system. The boiler is made of recycled plastic. It contains the hot water which circulats through radiators. Typical boiler capacity is 12 (single house) to 50 kilowatts for a condominium of 8 to ten units. Boilers can be cascaded for larger constructions.
