Detail Design:
Fit and Function. Consideration of DFA & DFM.
DFA - Design For Assembly considers methods and modes of assembly. Simplify the structure of your products and thereby reduce part costs as well as assembly costs. Should parts snap, press fit, solvent bond, ultrasonically weld together? Can multiple parts be replaced by one? Will products be assembled by hand or machine? Will material creep or yield?
DFM - Design For Manufacturing considers best methods for fabrication. Can the process provide the required tolerances? Does the design lend itself to the method? Does the volume justify the capital cost?
