Design for Manufacturing and Assembly

Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFMA) is an engineering approach that focuses on simplifying the design of products to make them easier and cheaper to produce and assemble. By considering manufacturing processes early in the design phase, engineers can reduce the number of parts, minimize complexity, and improve efficiency. This ultimately leads to lower production costs, faster assembly times, and higher product quality. DFMA emphasizes collaboration between design and manufacturing teams to ensure that products are not only functional but also practical to produce, helping companies deliver better products more efficiently.
