the least time, material and capital resources. 3P typically results in products that are easier to manufacture, have built-in quality, and have less complexity. The Center-West’s overview introduces organization to the basic principles of 3P. Participants learn the importance of function and value analysis, using human intelligence to stop a line automatically when a defective part is detected. They also learn the importance of seven unique alternatives, process mock-up, refinement, and early equipment management. Participants also learn how to calculate and use overall equipment effectiveness, the key metric for measuring equipment performance. This course emphasizes the importance of teamwork and integration between production personnel and the maintenance department.
Design for Manufacturing & Assembly (DFMA) is used by companies to develop product designs that use optimal manufacturing and assembly processes. Our DFMA program uses a cross-departmental approach that uses a systematic process to collect and analyze data and customer requirements. This DFMA process analysis leads to significant reductions in production cost, without compromising time to market goals, functionality and quality. PRODUCTION, PREPARATION, PROCESS (3P) 24 hours – $6,000 Production Preparation Process (3P) is often referred to as “design for manufacturability.” Starting with a clean development slate, 3P rapidly creates and validates potential production and process designs that require
