While product design efforts are primarily focused on form, fit and function, optimizing a product for its manufacturing environment and its supply chain can pay big dividends, by minimizing defect opportunities, unnecessary processing and material availability issues. Design for Manufacturability (DFM) and Design for Supply Chain (DFSC) are two analytical processes that, when used early in the product development phase, can reduce design iterations, help lower cost and reduce time to market. Screaming Circuits, the prototype to low volume division of Milwaukee Electronics, frequently helps its customers address both DFM and DFSC issues during product development.
This whitepaper looks at best DFSC practices and the benefits of accessing the expertise of a prototype or electronics manufacturing services (EMS) company to eliminate issues before production starts.
