Product Development
Refining the design with a focus on functionality, assembly and manufacturability. This stage integrates DFM principles to optimize materials, part design and production constraints, ensuring the product is reliable, realistic to produce and ready for the next validation steps.
DFM Optimization
Improving the design to meet manufacturing constraints while reducing complexity, cost and production risks.
Functional Integration
Defining how the product works by integrating mechanisms, moving parts and key functional components.
Assembly Strategy
Designing interfaces, fasteners and part relationships to ensure efficient and reliable assembly.
Material & Process Selection
Selecting the right materials and production methods to match performance, aesthetics and budget targets.
