Many times functional requirements dictate the product design however you are also limited by other factors of materials, tooling, process, assembly and other components design. How do you manage to balance all of these variables to meet or exceed functional requirements and still able to manufacture best quality parts at the lowest cost. The answer lies in simultaneous and concurrent engineering of product design, finite element analysis, and process simulation with successful teaming of designers, tool makers, material suppliers, molders and OEMs with the right engineering company. Here is the piece of our recent engineering - The subject flex member needed to redesigned to flex from few mm to several mm while maintaining flexing abilities with various vehicle model and assembly variations. It needed to be processed in the same tool with only one product design to avoid multiple tools, inserts or multiple parts. With concurrent engineering efforts and after several iterations that involved redesigning the part few times and rerunning iterations to verify stresses, strains, material, tool, and process options, we were able to exceed the functional requirements and avoid using multiple parts/tools and save thousands of dollars.
