This seminar provides a functional understanding of the principles
involved in conducting a Design for Manufacture/Design for Assembly
study. DFM/DFA can support both manual and automated processes
resulting in significant cost savings through simpler designs with
fewer components. Related topics include workstation layouts,
ergonomic considerations and errorproofing. Actual examples from the
automotive industry are used to support the lecture and participants
complete actual design efficiency using the DFM/DFA worksheet.
Learning Objectives
By attending this seminar, you will be able to:
Recognize and list the benefits of the DFM/DFA method in creating
product designs which support manufacturing processes leading to
short and long term product cost savings
Outline a Robust Manufacturing Plan that optimizes and simplifies
product design without sacrificing quality
Objectively determine which designs would be suitable as DFM/DFA
candidates
Perform the essential stages of a Design for Manufacture process
including the analysis required to overcome typical manufacturing
difficulties encountered in product design
Construct an actual DFM/DFA worksheet and calculate design
efficiency using an instructor provided project
