About Design for Assembly (DFA) Training

Design for Assembly (DFA) Training Course Overview:

DFA training describes Design for Assembly - how Boston students can minimize total cost through ease of manufacturing and assembling their designs. Total cost means across the entire company or enterprise; not just total material cost or departmental cost of the Product Design team. Designers must consider implications of capital investment needed for production equipment, utilities, production labor, inspection labor, warranty, etc. Usually, theses costs can be reduced through product simplification, especially those requiring less parts. Students will see how to assess assembly methods, choose one, then quantify the assembly efficiency of their designs using the chosen assembly method.

This course was very useful and practical, it uses examples that both challenge and compel the student. The experience and expertise of MBBC's instructor in the subject matter result in a classroom environment that marries fundamental pedagogy to the real world; and it includes the advantage of a better understanding of GD&T across diverse teams for their desired application(s). Here, we were able to identify areas of improvement both individually and within our organization. Thank you, it was a great experience.
