Abstract: In the past design and manufacturing worlds were considered two distinct entities.
However technological advancements and the introduction of various methods has brought
immense attention to build versus inspect “Quality” products from the early stages of the
product life cycle. As a result this has closed the gap between product design and process
development and manufacturing phases to allow companies to provide the best value to
customers and compete in marketplace. With ever increasing design and manufacturing overlap, designers are in quest for methods such as Design for manufacturability (DFM) to address such needs.
