Three-part engineering Masterclass series shows engineers how to minimize CNC machining challenges and design parts for optimal production quality, speed, and cost<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 12, 2020<\/strong> – Designing products for optimal user experiences, minimum manufacturing effort, and potential regulatory compliance is a difficult balancing act, especially within a COVID-19 work-from-home environment and amidst trade and political uncertainties. To help engineers navigate these considerations and deliver optimal product designs, Fictiv<\/u><\/a> today unveiled its first Masterclass: DFM for CNC machining<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe key to bringing a new product to market quickly and affordably is understanding how design choices directly lead to effort in manufacturing,\u201d said Dave Evans, CEO and Co-founder of Fictiv. \u201cWithout careful consideration, it\u2019s easy to get locked in early to a design that is higher cost and takes longer to manufacture. We created this DfM Masterclass series to provide engineers with key, proven insights for minimizing challenges and maximizing opportunity.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Developed using industry best practices and with extensive input from Fictiv manufacturing engineers and experienced mechanical product design experts, this three-part engineering Masterclass provides an updated take on and shares new insights into modern DfM strategies and techniques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe course is designed specifically with robotics, aerospace, and medical device product designers in mind because part complexity in those sectors can increase manufacturing effort exponentially,\u201d continued Evans. \u201cIt\u2019s critical that engineers within these industries acquire an understanding of how manufacturing effort scales with complexity and how to reduce effort as much as possible given the design requirements.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
