Project Stages

Designers Edge has a unique defined stage package approach to engineering services.

We provide complete services for your needs in all stages of your project development. Click the steps below to view the what we have to offer.

  Re-Engineering and Re-Tooling Assembly Lines

Objective:

Provide Manufacturing Companies or Machine Builders options to use their existing Assembly and Test Capital Equipment to Manufacture different assemblies

Deliverables:

• Develop an Assembly and Test Process for the New Assembly
• Review Existing Equipment Available
• Assess the Re-tool-able Value
• Concept dwg of the Line filling in the gaps with new or (used and located)
• Quote Complete redesign and retool of the line

  Project Stage 1 - Budgetary Estimating Process Development and Pricing

Objective:

Provide Manufacturing Companies or Machine Builder -Integrators with a quick baseline process, sequence, layout, budgetary capital estimate and risks analysis. For purposes of calculating piece part cost and for use in customer presentations.

Deliverables:

• Develop an Assembly and Test Process (Scope)
• Assembly and Test Sequence
• Conceptual Equipment Layout
• Develop a Preliminary Timing Chart
• Pre-PFMEA Risk and Unknowns Doc.

  Project Stage 2 - Project Specifications and Process Definition

Objective:

Provide Manufacturing Companies or Machine Builder -Integrators a thorough review of the process, prepare project specifications for final bid process, can be extended to an after quote received vendor capability/risk analysis.

Deliverables:

Assembly Tolerance Stack Up Process Cycle Timing Chart Ergonomics Review PFMEA DFMA Picture Process Sheets

Project Timeline Project Specification Run-Off Acceptance Requirements Final Process Adjusted Request For Quotation Quote Evaluation Assessment review

  Project Stage 3 - Prototype Parts, Process Development and Validation

Objective:

Provide Manufacturing Companies or Machine Builder- Integrators with further process development data from making process samples and prototypes for important process information gaps and/or validation.

Deliverables:

Tolerance Review and Stack Up Process Definition DOE Parameters Prototype

Test Work Compilation of Test Results Prototype Build Tooling

  Project Stage 4 - Core Engineering Work

Objective:

Provide Manufacturing Companies or Machine Builder Integrators with Engineering work either as project engineers or to work in specific engineering core disciplinesProvide Manufacturing Companies or Machine Builder -Integrators with a quick baseline process, sequence, layout, budgetary capital estimate and risks analysis. For purposes of calculating piece part cost and for use in customer presentations.

Deliverables:

Project Engineering Mechanical Engineering Controls Engineering Hyraulic (Fluid)

Pneumatics Engineering 2D/3D Plant Engineering Software Engineering Engineering

  Project Management

Objective:

Provide Manufacturing Companies or Machine Builder Integrators with Project Management in any or all phases of the project cycle. Some more text

Deliverables:

• Project Management I (Pre-engineering, Test, Engineering and Build)
• Project Management II (Test, Engineering and Build)
• Project Management III (Engineering and Build)
• Project Management IIII (Post Engineering Build)
