What will I learn?
The Design for Manufacturing Course shows you how to turn a baseline handheld mixer into a streamlined, production-ready design. Learn to cut part count, simplify fastening, choose cost-effective materials, and design for injection molding. Practice mapping assembly, test, and factory flow, apply DFM and DFA rules, and document changes with clear metrics, standards, and quality checkpoints for faster, more reliable builds.
