Designs for Manufacturability
Why do you need this...
​
This process helps you obtain manufacturable component/system designs which include considerations for material properties, fabrication temperatures, machining processes used, as well as the physical conditions where the component/system will perform.
This process helps in obtaining a highly precise end product (having highly specific desired dimensions) after the manufacturing/fabrication process, regardless of what processes are used during its production, such as Casting, Welding, Drilling, Machining, etc.
For eg., these designs compensate for the material contraction after casting processes or other high temperature production methods, hence these base designs are more or less accurate to the end-product specifications due to their skewed designs which compensate for these effects, which in turn reduces significant costs incurred by the generally complex finishing processes applied on the component/system, before assembly or shipping it to the customer/user.
Plant-Layout Design & Logistics Planning
Why do you need this...
​
This process is conducted to visualize the manufacturing plant layout, estimate time taken for each product's complete cycle from raw material to end-product and ease of manufacturing the same.
This helps in the context of planning, the most efficient flow paths of raw materials, personnel, machinery, assembly-lines, etc. within a manufacturing plant.
This helps reduce time taken in manufacturing by optimizing specific conventional processes and re-analyzing more perspectives of how the plant layout can be improved applying Six-Sigma Methodologies and Japanese Kaizen principles.
