Design for Assembly (DFA) Training Course Overview:

DFA training describes Design for Assembly - how Wichita 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.

Cowtown - Air Capital of the World

Excellent choice! Beechcraft, Cessna, and Stearman founded Wichita's aircraft manufacturing prominence reinforced by Airbus and others plus presence of McConnell Air Force Base. Wichita began as a Chisholm Trail trading post and Texan cattle drive railhead to eastern markets. Population expanded as a result. Wichita State and Friends Universities were built. Refineries followed after oil and natural gas discovery. Oil wealth spawned aircraft manufacturing whose growth accelerated with WWII. Wichita remains an economic and cultural center of the state offering many events and points of interest for students after Design for Assembly (DFA) Training. Most popular are the Sedgwick County Zoo, Museum of World Treasures, Wichita Gardens, Orpheum Theater, and the Original Pizza Hut.

Our Master Black Belt introduced improved quality and manufacturing processes. Our company was moving to become ISO certified. He and I, plus one other, came from the automotive side and certified in ISO. Further, we had QS experience which was a more concentrated standard to allow all automotive companies to work to the same quality and manufacturing standard. He was also familiar with TS quality standards.
