About Design for Assembly (DFA) Training


Who is Design for Assembly (DFA) Training for?

Design for Assembly is usually used by Product Design and Development Engineers. Manufacturing, Production, and Quality Engineers; and Procurement professionals must also know DFA to effectively participate in design reviews and assess and challenge the use of DFA or lack thereof. Managers of these functions should understand the terminology and concepts. If you are in or want to be in one of those roles, then DFA Training is for you. In our course, Chicago students learn:

Design for Assembly (DFA) Training Course Overview:

DFA training describes Design for Assembly - how Chicago 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.

Chicago

Windy City - City in a Garden

Excellent choice! Railways, waterways, and airline routes emanate from Chicago like rays of the sun. Since its beginning, the area connected local watersheds with navigable waterways of the Mississippi River and Great Lakes. The the Illinois and Michigan Canal opened. Galena and Chicago Union Railroad was built. Steel skyscrapers were erected. Parks were established. Chicago became the nation's railroad center, and by 1910 over 20 railroads operated passenger service out of 6 different downtown terminals. WWII spurred manufacturing especially steel production. Universities and an airport were built. Now, Chicago has the largest number of highways and greatest amount of railroad freight in the US, and one of the busiest airports in the world. By population, Chicago is 3rd largest in the US and #1 in Illinois. So, if you get bored in Chicago, then the problem is on your end. Options include Navy Pier, Shedd Aquarium, an Architecture River Cruise, Millennium Park, Cloud Gate, museums, some of the most unique (and expensive) shopping in the world, and more!

So happy to get a professional that knows what they're talking about in here to teach us something useful. Our hands-on measurement system analysis exercise revealed problems with one of the gages most frequently used by Quality.
