Design for Manufacturability Solutions for the Workplace
It’s one thing to produce an excellent prototype to be handled by highly skilled technicians. Penn United takes product development one next step further. We create a process solution that addresses the reality of the customer’s workplace. In other words Penn United approaches product design with the customer’s production and material handling systems, manufacturing processes and labor force capabilities in mind.
This expertise is known as Design for Manufacturability or DFM. The Penn United team follows a number of design guidelines established to achieve high quality and durability, improved application and enhanced maintainability. Our goal is to design a product that will be produced with ease, dependability and superior quality.
Some of our Design for Manufacturing guidelines include:
- Keep the number of parts to a minimum
- Design verifiability into the product and its components
- Avoid tight tolerances beyond the natural capability of the manufacturing processes
- Design robustness into products
- Design modular products to facilitate assembly
- Provide sourcing to ensure on-time availability of components during the design life cycle
Design for Manufacturing is just one of many ways Penn United provides superior solutions to all your metal manufacturing needs. We work closely with our customers during the design stage to help find the right concept and development plan to meet specific needs and tolerances. Our integrated approach to metal manufacturing provides the most efficient and controlled process.
