About Design for Assembly (DFA) Training

Design for Assembly (DFA) Training Course Overview:

DFA training describes Design for Assembly - how Seattle 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.

Excellent choice! Seattle is a tech-booming, rainy, coffee-loving Pacific paradise bordered by the Olympic and Cascade Mountains between Puget Sound and Lake Washington. Seattle was born on lumber then gold becoming the main supply, transport, and communication point for Alaskan miners. In-fact, UPS and major clothing companies were begun as a result. Shipbuilding followed encouraged by WWI. Theater emerged. WWII spurred aircraft production which afterwards transformed to commercial applications. The Space Needle was built. And, technology migrated in with Seattle becoming home to some of America's largest tech giants.
