DFM reviews include:
- Part design and function
- Tool design and function
- Plastic requirements
- Tolerance requirements (We adhere to SPI standards and practices for tooling and parts)
- Process requirements
- Secondary operations and assembly
- Quality and consistency
- End of life needs
We try to solve as many issues as possible before we build the molds with through the creation of our DFM Review. Our DFM reviews take place prior to tooling design.
Please see our white paper on Design & Compromise for a more thorough discussion of these factors.
Although we still do work in all industries, our largest customer sales are for the medical device, medical equipment, medical and healthcare, and medical contract manufacturers.
