The task of the production engineer is to incorporate the product manufacturing perspective into the product design during the early product development phase. In order to recognise and avoid production risks at an early stage, the production engineer plans the manufacturing concept and the production line in parallel with product development. In close coordination with the product development team, these findings flow directly into the product design.
The fields of activity of the production engineer include
- Analysing the requirements for product manufacture
- Selection of production processes
- Determination of production & test steps
- FMEA production process
- Prototype construction with knowledge derivation
- Optimisation of production costs
- Manufacturing & test instructions
- Planning the production line incl. logistics concept
- Implementation of quality management
- Training of production staff
- Introduction of series production with improvement process
Competence Center Design for Excelence (DfX) can support you with production engineers to further develop a functional model/prototype into a series product and establish a stable production process.
With our experienced team, we offer you the necessary technical and human resources to support you with technical product developments or revisions.
