The enormous market pressure on companies that develop and/or produce electronic products means that there is no time and money left for various design iterations before a product goes to market. Some of these pressures are listed below:
Time to Market more and more critical
Enormous pressure on cost control
Technology evolves at lightening speed
EDA/Engineering processes becoming increasingly complex
| In addition, the design data sent to printed board suppliers and assembly houses often causes problems in itself. It may be incomplete and/or ambiguous.Design houses will obviously have to take action to ensure 'first-time-right', if they are to retain their competitive edge. Deftronics is your success partner. |

To overcome many of the difficulties caused by the pressures mentioned above, Deftronics provides Design For Manufacturability (DFM), Design For Testing(DFT) and Design For Assembly (DFA) services. All of these services are the result of the DFX philosophy. This philosophy aims at ensuring a product realization process that guarantees a robust "First Time Right" design/product.
Valuable time and money can be saved with our concurrent engineering process, also known as virtual manufacturing. The software used for this process is Valor? Trilogy 5000, which is based on the application of the ODB++? database.
The manufacturability and reliability of your product will be improved because of consistent implementation of design and manufacturing guidelines. This applies at both printed board and assembly level. The result will be a flawless data flow from design to manufacturing, for both prototypes and production.
The Trilogy 5000 software will be able to run its extensive analysis to the designed PCB such as net list analyzer, BOM vs CAD comparison, PCB fabrication analysis, ICT testing analysis, PCB assembly analysis. The design data will be thoroughly validated. The ODB++ data set can be transferred to both printed board suppliers and assembly houses for production.
From experience as well as advanced tools, we know that this method will ensure "First Time Right" design.
