How a Hardware Startup Cut Assembly Time by 60% Using Design for Assembly
In this episode of Hardware Startups with Fexingo, we dive into how Motus Robotics, a small robotics startup, slashed assembly time from 45 minutes to 12 minutes per unit by applying Design for Assembly (DFA) principles. Lucas and Luna break down the changes: part consolidation, snap-fit joints, standardized fasteners, and parallel sub-assembly. They explore the trade-offs of DFA, including when it makes sense and when it doesn't, and contrast it with Design for Manufacturing (DFM). If you're building hardware and want to reduce production costs without sacrificing quality, this…
