Hello everybody, this is Runa Andjeran and I'm joined by Andrew Amrinovin
2
and we are going to cover the topic of design for manufacturing
3
and design for assembly and what engineers need to know when designing a new product.
4
Hi Andrew.
5
So what does it mean design for manufacturing?
6
Hello Renaud, good to be here.
7
Thank you for inviting me.
8
Well design for manufacturing is one of the most important design basically elements when it comes to designers.
9
that is where you want to make sure
10
that design is manufacturable easy to manufacture
11
and you want to implement a system of design so
12
that there's only one way for the user at the end
13
end user to be able to use the product during the manufacturing manufacturing,
14
of course, you want to make sure that the assembly of the
15
parts are simplified in and so that there is basically less of a mistake possible
16
or they call it also mistake proofing the assembly.
17
So that's called design for assembly during the manufacturing.
18
Right.
19
And so you also covered design for assembly.
20
Design for manufacturing, usually people say that when it comes to the fabrication of parts and design for assemblies, how to put it together.
21
But really the principles, the approach is pretty similar.
22
So let's cover a few things that designers need to keep in mind.
23
And the first one is that when you design custom parts that are not standard off the shelf, they're not available right there,
24
out there in the market, they actually can be fabricated with the process that you have in mind for mass production.
25
Does that make sense?
26
Yeah, it does.
27
And I think there are a lot of ways to fabricate parts.
28
There are 3D printing nowadays and there are injection molding.
29
There are many ways to actually fabricate parts, but at the end of the day,
30
you wanna simplify the design so that they're easy to be manufactured and easy to be fabricated.
31
Right, at the intended volume, right?
32
So you mentioned 3D printing versus plastic injection molding.
33
Correct.
34
If you wanna make 50 pieces, maybe 3D printing is gonna be fine, but if mass production is gonna be batches of 10,000,
35
you get to think of injection molding right absolutely
36
the the second one is a related point is whenever you can do not custom design
37
some parts whenever you can if you can find standard off the shelf products on the market
38
use them
39
and simplify your product remove the risks remove the extra cost remove the the the time to make the molds
40
and so on and so forth do you have an example
41
or would you want to go deeper into this yeah that's correct now nowadays a lot of the components
42
and so-called after shift parts are pretty much approved in terms of technology,
43
in terms of production, and they are very much improved compared to 10, 20 years ago in terms of reliability and quality.
44
So a lot of these, and you have a lot of different kinds of parts that are standardized nowadays.
45
You have actives, passives, you know, for example, caps, resistors, inductors, as well as ICs, semiconductors.
46
These are all a lot of these, including some connectors that are already off the shelf approved parts.
47
And there are plenty of vendors out there.
48
And a lot of times these parts are readily available
49
and in stock so there's no need to redesign
50
or reinvent the wheel per se
51
and you just need to contact the supplier of your choice
52
and get some samples and try it in your design
53
and then if it works you can actually get a good deal cheap readily available parts right away right so um obviously
54
if you need a very nice, let's say enclosure with your own design, you're not going to find that out in the market, but especially for internal parts as much as possible.
55
Correct.
56
Try to go standard of the shelf, we'll save you some time, some money and reduce the risk actually quite a bit.
57
Right.
58
Exactly.
59
The next point, when you design the product as early as possible, you need to think, okay,
60
how is this going to be made with what production process and what's the material going to be?
61
And some people come to us and they say well this is probably going to be some plastic
62
but aluminum might be okay also and so on and they really haven't thought through this
63
so the design is far far far from complete.
64
Does that make sense?
65
Yes, it does.
66
I think that this is where collaboration with different functions within the team is extremely important.
67
I think designers need to be in touch with the ID Department Industrial Design team, as well as the program managers, customer requirements requirements
68
and really at the end of the day they need to
69
understand how this product is going to be used at the end
70
so needs to be designed with the processes and materials
71
that are in hand in mind so
72
that everything will move smoothly absolutely the next point is think also of the color
73
and finish and I'm talking to mechanical designers mostly here when you do your your 2D drawings
74
this should be mentioned on the drawing if you don't put
75
that down and
76
if you don't already think about it well this is also related to the to the process
77
and the material that you need to pick.
78
If you pick a process that's maybe that leads to very porous parts like die casting and you want to anodize it,
79
you will probably probably run into issues, right?
80
This is just an example.
81
Have you run into that?
82
Yeah, I think that's a great point because a lot of times younger MEs,
83
mechanical engineers, forget about the color or finish until towards the end
84
and what happens is that different materials absorb and all reflect color
85
and the finish differently
86
and you end up having for example let's say you have two different kind of materials and you're supposed to have
87
one color for both and then you end up having two tones two different colors
88
that id will reject then you'll have delays in product delivery to market
89
so it's very important right from the beginning uh establish a well-known approved vendor for material and and color and paint
90
so that you can actually get some color chips
91
and materials samples right up front
92
so you can actually get it approved for the project as
93
soon as possible yeah that's a great point yes reduces risk a lot.
94
Exactly.
95
And the last one and you touched on a little bit when you introduced the topic assembly.
96
You have production operators, they're not university graduates.
97
They're not going to think deeply about how things have to be put together.
98
It's got to be, you know,
99
broken down to the right degree at least and it's got to be relatively obvious how to put the parts together, right?
100
Yeah, exactly.
101
Assembly is one of the most important parts of the production.
102
Many designers forget the fact that actually they're going to be operators and manual assembly on some of these parts,
103
parts which can greatly impact the reliability and quality
104
and testing of these assembled units or modules
105
so it is very important for designers actually be in the assembly line
106
and actually observe how these units are being assembled
107
and they will have a better idea of how to design it next time yeah
108
if possible engineers should put prototypes together themselves they will have an idea
109
so exactly yes and it's it's also true for packing um
110
and the same thing so thanks a lot andrew
111
that was a good uh good overview of this topic
112
and let's go into the next one in the next video thank you great thanks for having me thank you

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
