At
Oz Invent we have an indepth working knowledge of the major
manufacturing process available. |
Knowing
how a part is going to be made allows us to optimize the design
for that process. The primary reason we do this is to save you
money.
Savings
The
cost savings down the track can be huge. For example, when we
redesign a plastic injection molded part, it is not uncommon that
we can save 10 or 15 thousand dollars from the setup cost as well
as a few cents on each part.
| "A
few cents each really adds up if your making a million parts!" |

Opportunities

for manufacture may sound like an obvious and simple step, however
many designers fail to take full advantage of the opportunities
that exist in this area.

in a way that will difficult to manufacture. |
