About Design for Assembly (DFA) Training

Design for Assembly (DFA) Training Course Overview:

DFA training describes Design for Assembly - how Philadelphia 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.

City of Brotherly Love - The City that Loves you Back

Excellent choice! Both the Declaration of Independence and US Constitution were written in Philadelphia (Philly). It is the largest city in Pennsylvania, and economic anchor of the greater Delaware Valley. After Design for Assembly (DFA) Training, Philly won't disappoint. Make some time to visit the revitalized waterfront. Once made up of undeveloped piers and underutilized public spaces, the Delaware River waterfront has become one of the city's most activated attractions thanks to the opening of Race Street and Cherry Street Piers, Spruce Street Harbor Park, Blue Cross RiverRink, and spectacular views of the Benjamin Franklin Bridge.

Our MBBC trainer was very knowledgeable and informative in every area. The training was great for people with little to no experience or those with some experience already. He catered to what we previously knew about ISO/IATF. The course allowed me to practice my own skills which I liked most because you don't learn without trying. You also don't know what you don't know so having an instructor with all his experience / expertise helped foresee possible issues we may run into in the future so we are equipped to handle those.

I think MBBC instructor's 5S training was very good and effective by technique and his on-site advise. In Japan, most of purpose for 5S training is "Realization of a safe working environment". In his training, I learned as "Maximize corporate profit" and at the same time it was very impressive that how clear and effect of doing 5S is very closely linked to lean manufacturing. I felt that is effective especially for western who have different mentalities from Japanese.
