Design For Manufacturing (DFM)

The DFM Advantage

Custom design your parts for best output, maximum efficiency, and lowest cost.

Stable tariffs in a volatile world

Approximately 70% of manufacturing costs stem from early design decisions. By employing Design For Manufacturing (DFM), you not only create just the right component but also reduce production costs and remove inefficiencies.
