Component engineering

80% of cost is caused by 20% of parts.

Component engineering plays a key role especially in cases when a serial production is in outlook. A good component design brings not only saving cost but also behaviour optimisation, lifetime optimisation, limitation of failures and another advantages.

By designing a component more specific factors need to be controlled.

• Cost (DFC, design for cost)
• Value (DFV, design for value)
• Feasibility (DFM, design for manufacturing)
• Assemblability (DFA, design for assembly)
• Reliability (DFR, design for reliability)
• Testing and measurement (DFT, DFM)
• Environment impact (DFE, design for environment)
