Shorten Production Timelines

By optimizing for manufacturability upfront, we eliminate rework and delays, shaving weeks off your project timeline.

Improve Part Quality & Consistency

DFM ensures your design is optimized for material flow, cooling, and ejection, resulting in higher-quality, more consistent parts.

Dimud Technology

Common Design Risks

Undercuts & Complex Geometry

Risk: Increases mold complexity, raises tooling costs, and can cause ejection issues.

Solution: Our DFM team recommends simplified geometry or side-action/cam mechanisms to maintain functionality while reducing complexity.

Inconsistent Wall Thickness

Risk: Causes warping, sink marks, and uneven cooling, leading to part defects.

Solution: We optimize wall thickness to ensure uniform material flow and cooling, eliminating defects.

Insufficient Draft Angles

Risk: Makes part ejection difficult, leading to damage and increased cycle times.

Solution: We calculate optimal draft angles based on material and surface finish requirements for smooth ejection.

Poor Material Selection

Risk: Leads to part failure, increased costs, and non-compliance with industry standards.

Solution: Our engineers recommend materials based on your part’s function, environment, and regulatory requirements.
