1 MANUFACTURING PROCESSES WE REVIEW IN MME2259a DESIGN FOR MANUFACTURING (DFM) 1.Machining - is the process of removing or separating pieces of material from a workpiece (i.e. material removal). 2.Forming - is the process of giving shape to a workpiece without adding material to, or removing material from, the workpiece (i.e. material deformation, casting, and injection molding). 3.Joining - is the process of fastening workpieces together, permanently or semi- permanently. 4.Finishing - is the process of modifying a workpiece surface for the purposes of protection and/or appearance (i.e. surface treatment).

26 DESIGN GUIDELINES FOR MOLDING Do not design sharp corners, they create stress concentrations and obstruct material flow, … but do not design too large radii either. DON’T DODON’T
27 DESIGN GUIDELINES FOR MOLDING Keep section thickness uniform around bosses. Attach bosses to walls with ribs. DON’T DO
28 DESIGN GUIDELINES FOR MOLDING Keep rib thickness less than 60% of the part thickness to prevent voids and sinks. Space out ribs as shown. DON’T DO Sink mark
