With a few relatively simple adjustments to your part design and material selection, you can improve the functionality of your machined parts while reducing manufacturing costs. Important design considerations like feature thickness, complexity and radii all contribute to machining a more efficient part.

In our brief webinar, you’ll learn:

  • How you can reduce manufacturing costs by simplifying part design
  • Material alternatives to improve functionality while cutting production cost
  • Why designing with moldability in mind early can better prepare you for a move to injection molding
