CAP-07Capability
Design for manufacturability, tolerance analysis, and process development — applied before a program is quoted, not after it struggles.
Overview
Forty-one manufacturing engineers sit across the four plants, and every quotation passes through one of them. Their job is to tell you what your design will cost to make, and which decisions are driving that cost.
Tolerance stack analysis, weld distortion modeling, and machining simulation run during quotation. It is far cheaper to find an impossible datum scheme on a screen than on a fixture.
Where a design change is not open to us, we say so and engineer around it. Where it is, we bring the specific change, the saving it produces, and the risk it carries.
