Design for Assembly (DFA) Training Course Overview:

DFA training describes Design for Assembly - how New Orleans students can minimize total cost through ease of manufacturing and assembling their designs. Total cost means across the entire company or enterprise; not just total material cost or departmental cost of the Product Design team. Designers must consider implications of capital investment needed for production equipment, utilities, production labor, inspection labor, warranty, etc. Usually, theses costs can be reduced through product simplification, especially those requiring less parts. Students will see how to assess assembly methods, choose one, then quantify the assembly efficiency of their designs using the chosen assembly method.

Excellent choice! New Orleans is an economic hub for the broader Gulf Coast. Since its beginning, the port handled commodities for export from the interior and imported goods from other countries often transferred to smaller vessels traversing the Mississippi River. New Orleans is world-renowned for its distinct music and dialect, Creole cuisine, and annual celebrations most notably Mardi Gras. After Design for Assembly (DFA) Training, popular spots include the National WWII Museum, Garden District, French Quarter, St Louis Cathedral, Jackson Square, and Audubon Zoo.

MBBC's instructor is a true gem in the industry! Not only was he engaging (no one fell asleep, that really says something), his industry knowledge is current and even surpasses the industry standards for accuracy, clarity, and understanding in the GD&T space. From this course, I discovered how much GD&T exposure I have had as a Biomedical Engineer working in Quality, and it also gave me the framework I need to finally move into design and product development. I am looking forward to taking more courses with MBB Consulting.

Our Master Black Belt has excellent leadership skills and had great ability to drive the team with excellent results. He is highly customer oriented. I had learned a lot from him on the implementation of the best practices in lean Six Sigma & application of DOE's in process improvements
