DFM — the 30-minute review that pays for itself
· 2 min read
Most parts arrive at our shop with at least one feature that costs more than it should. Sometimes a tolerance that's tighter than the part actually needs. Sometimes a bend that's hard to form. Sometimes two materials specified for one part that could be a single piece. None of this is anyone's fault — designers can't know every constraint of every shop. That's why we always ask for a 30-minute review before we cut.
