Design for Manufacturing Course 11 Part 1: Design for Manual Assembly

What you'll get

Scott Miller's 2014 lecture on designing a product so people can put it together quickly: why fewer parts means fewer fixtures and less time at the bench, and ways to join plastic parts, including ultrasonic welding, glue and screws, and spring clips, with examples from a classic design-for-assembly textbook. His firm mostly handled injection-molded plastic and sold manufacturing services, so use the lecture for how to think about part count and joining, and check each technique against your own materials.
