Expert Solution
Step 1
  • Design for Reliability (DFR)
  •  Truly speaking this Process for ensuring reliability of a product or system during the design
    stage before physical prototype.
  • We have reviews of designing at key stages throughout the design cycle provides critical feedback to address potential issues to ensure a successful new product introduction and high quality, high yielding, reliable and manufacturable product.
  • It is performed early in the design cycle to identify approved manufacturer part numbers which for reasons of lifecycle, availability, process compatibility or validity are addressed prior to initial design.
  • The design for Manufacturing techniques are focused on individual parts and components with a goal of reducing or eradicating expensive, complex or worthless features which would make them arduous to manufacture. It  focus on reduction and standardization of parts, sub-assemblies and assemblies.
  • When we think about it, they must be integrated to prevent one from causing negative effects on the other.
  • The designers could  seek to combine parts to reduce assembly steps, quantity of parts and hardware
  • If the resulting parts are difficult or big-budget to manufacture then you have gained nothing.
  • We must work together to executing both goals.
