Design for manufacturability is the cornerstone of getting a product to production in the shortest possible time, at the lowest possible price, ensuring you have sufficient profit margins to be successful. This session will reveal how you can use the DFM tools in SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD, along with the Costing module in SOLIDWORKS Professional, to quantify your design for manufacturability. Designing for the best product performance is one thing, but if that means your product is too expensive to be successful in the market, then there is no point making it that good! Learn how to balance Cost and Manufacturability using the tools built in to SOLIDWORKS.
