Design for Manufacturability (DFM)

Design for Manufacturability (DFM) is an engineering approach aimed at simplifying the manufacturing process of a product. It involves creating designs that are easier and more cost-effective to produce. This means considering materials, assembly methods, and production techniques early in the design phase. By doing so, companies can reduce production time, minimize waste, and lower costs while improving product quality. Ultimately, DFM helps ensure that a product can be efficiently and reliably made, balancing functionality with practical manufacturing capabilities.
