Concurrent Engineering Principles
Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFM+A), pioneered by Boothroyd and Dewhurst, has been used by many companies around the world to develop creative product designs that use optimal manufacturing and assembly processes. Correctly applied, DFM+A analysis leads to significant reductions in production cost, without compromising product time-to-market goals, functionality, quality, serviceability, or other attributes. In this two-day seminar, you will not only learn the Boothroyd Dewhurst Method, you will actually apply it to your own product design! This seminar will include information on how DFM+A fits in with QFD, concurrent engineering, robust engineering, and other disciplines. In addition, there will be a brief demonstration of computer software tools, which simplify the DFM+A analysis.
“concurrent engineering products” or business objects, which represent design domains (geometrical, functional), and which enable to maximize the work in parallel. • Synchronization, to ensure that the resulting development cycle is under control. • Control of interfaces of the different design domains. • Multidisciplinary engineering. Principles of concurrent engineering have come to stay as an alternative to conventional sometimes nay conservative manufacturing approaches to offer benefits related to cost, quality and time.
Each participant will receive and use the hard-bound authoritative reference textbook, Product Design for Manufacture and Assembly, written by Geoffrey Boothroyd, Peter Dewhurst and Winston Knight. Kevin Zielinski Kevin Zielinski currently owns and operates Red Cedar Media LLC, a training and corporate communications consulting, design, development and delivery company based in Michigan.
Previously, Kevin was Senior Applications Specialist for EDS (including General Motors/EDS and Hewlett Packard/EDS) specializing in technical training delivery, training consulting, courseware design and development, and e-Learning. He has designed, developed and delivered over 40 lecture- and web-based courses attended by General Motors and EDS employees worldwide. Zielinski has also served as Adjunct Professor for the Wayne State University College of Engineering and WSU/Focus:Hope for many years.
His areas of expertise include: e-Learning design and development, Quality Tools and Methods (Design of Six Sigma, Robust Engineering, Design of Experiments (DOE), Statistical Tolerancing and GD&T); Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFMA); Engineering Economics; and Plant Floor Throughput Improvement. He has been an instructor for SAE Professional Development since 1990, and is a recipient of SAE's Forest R. McFarland Award (April 2005). He holds a bachelor's and master's degree in engineering from Wayne State University.

Testimonial 'I think the seminar is a great way to help engineers to consider manufacturing during initial design concepts.' Cinthia Becks Sensor Development Engineer ITT Automotive 'Very helpful in establishing guidelines for evaluating product improvement in a simple and effective manner.' Ralph Colborn Product Engineer Ark-Les Corporation 'This course delivers what it says and keeps you engaged with hands-on exercises. I strongly recommend this course to any engineer; this will definitely broaden their scope and insight at work.

( new bio-page ). Unique new course: or raising profits without raising prices Leading-edge Expertise on DFM & Concurrent Engineering For the last 25 years, has been showing companies how to develop low-cost products that ramp quickly to stable production. His customized in-house two-day has how to use Concurrent Engineering to design products for the best manufacturability, at, in, with the highest using the methodologies summarized in the and published in the All DFM & Concurrent Engineering, and workshops are practical and relevant because they are His immediately apply these principles to new projects as they begin. DFM Seminars and workshops show how to products, which is an important step between Research and Development. Commercialization of research ensures the Development phase will be able to design low-cost, manufacturable products quick.
His new is: Leading-edge; customized, Low-cost can reach unlimited audiences anywhere. It can be schedulee quickly and allow prople to have time to work between4 four-hour sessions His powerful will apply DFM principle to large, heavy, or complex parts for major reduction in cost. Material usage, weight, skill demands, quality costs, and build time.
The workshop will show how to develop low-cost new-generation products or backward-compatible substitute modules that will replace expensive weldments, casting, or unnecessarily heavy machined parts with more steel-efficient parts of assemblies of CNC machined parts that are accurately assembled by various DFM techniques. The illustration below shows an example of a common machine frame, which can replace all welded frames, most of which need to be machined on large 'gantry' milling machines to drill mounting holes in the warped frame. When the cost of steel goes up, bring in the. Standardizationincreases purchasing leverage, simplify supply chain management, reduce part and overhead cost, enhances flexibility, and cuts the speed and cost of product development efforts.
See Mass Customizationcan build products on-demand that are efficiently customized for niche markets, various countries, or individual customers, as summarized in this site's and the in the April 2011 issue of Mechanical Engineering Magazine. These principles have been published in Dr. Anderson's second book on Mass Customization: published in Dr. Anderson's second book on the subject: Build to ordercan build any quantity of mass-customized or standard products on-demand without forecasts, batches, inventory, or purchasing delays. See and article on how BTO provides several for immediate results with little capital cost.
Product Line Rationalizationcan rationalize product lines to eliminate or outsource older, low-volume products to immediately increase profits, simplify supply chain management, and free up people to participate early in complete multifunctional product development teams. See DFM alone may make the difference between being competitive and not succeeding in the marketplace.
Most markets are highly competitive, so slight competitive advantages (or disadvantages) can have significant impact. See DFM may make the difference between a competitive product line and, in the extreme, products that are not manufacturable at all. Products fail and go out of production because costs are too high, quality is too low, the introduction was too late, or production couldn't keep up with demand. These are all manufacturability issues and therefore very much affected by Design for Manufacturability Would you like to enquire further?
