Intended Audience: Project leaders and project team members.
Course Overview
Cost Reduction, Quality Improvements, Cycle-time, and Simplification are recurring themes for staying competitive in the global marketplace. Since 80% of a product’s cost is determined early in the design and development process, it is imperative that design practices are employed which minimize the cost to produce the product. In addition, a design that is compatible with the manufacturing processes available is a design capable of achieving high levels of quality and short cycle-times. The design disciplines that have come to be known as design for manufacturability (DFM), are recognized as a critical element in simplifying the product, minimizing the product cost, and delivering high levels of quality and short cycle-times. This two day course will identify the major tools and techniques used in DFM and provide a highly interactive, hands-on environment for practicing their application. In addition to the case studies and exercises, the participants are encouraged to bring a product from their company to be used in an analysis done during class. The course will include a discussion on the implementation of DFM into your existing design process.
