Cherchez-vous de l'aide pour la recherche et l'idéation afin de créer votre nouveau produit? Avez-vous un article actuellement produit qui nécessite une modification subtile ou pas si subtile? Si la réponse à ces questions est oui, nous pouvons vous aider.
By providing custom design and manufacturing solutions, our engineering team becomes an extension of yours. Working with a company providing both design and manufacturing services streamlines the transition from design to manufacturing. We can recommend design improvements, reduce manufacturing costs, enhance functionality, and improve quality. Benefits of design services include cost analysis and reduction programs, SKU consolidation opportunities, reverse engineering, and drop-in replacement products.
Engaging East West’s Design Services teams minimize the risk of
tâtonnant le passage de la conception à la fabrication. La même équipe
qui conçoit votre produit, fabrique votre produit.
Adam Sanderson
Vice-président de l'ingénierie
East West’s Design Services offers expert consultation with a team of design engineers specializing in mechanical or electro-mechanical components, sub-assemblies, or projects. Whether you’re looking for a major redesign for technical purposes or to reduce costs, we will work with you to take your product specifications and turn them into a production-ready design.
Dedicated Design Center in Asheville, NC
In 2022, East West expanded our design services and opened our Asheville Design Center (ADC) in Asheville, NC. The ADC is integrated with its sister team in Atlanta to guide customers through the processes required to transition your product from concept to mass production as well as provide support for the development of products, custom components, jigs, and test fixtures to drive efficiencies in manufacturing.
Both ADC and the Atlanta-based Design Center teams are packed with seasoned senior-level engineers capable of designing, prototyping, validating, and launching technical electro-mechanical in any East West facility.

L'introduction d'un nouveau produit
Ready to tool and ramp? Our team of NPI engineering professionals is available to usher your components or complete assemblies through industry standard New Product Introduction (NPI) and Production Part Approval Process (PPAP); enabling you to provide a mature, vertically integrated box-build capability to your customers.
New Product Introduction (NPI) has been a core engineering function of East West Manufacturing since our founding in 2001. Our Engineering Services NPI Team is comprised of experienced material scientists and mechanical and electrical engineers that are well-versed in the capabilities of our international business units and have the appropriate knowledge and contacts to ensure those customer components or sub-assemblies are tooled and qualified in accordance with industry-standard Production Part Approval Processes (PPAP.)
Coût et délai de mise sur le marché
Avec un accès à des designers aux États-Unis et à l'étranger, notre équipe de services de conception peut générer des conceptions à une fraction du coût des autres entreprises. En utilisant une technologie de pointe comme Dynamique des fluides computationnelle (CFD) et Analyse par éléments finis (FEA) logiciel, nos ingénieurs concepteurs peuvent tester votre conception avant le prototypage, ce qui vous fait gagner du temps et de l’argent.
Support technique
En partenariat avec nos ingénieurs mécaniques et électriques, notre équipe de services de conception utilise les principes de la conception pour la fabrication (DFM) et la conception pour l'assemblage (DFA), en examinant votre produit ou vos spécifications et en recherchant des moyens de réduire les coûts de fabrication sans sacrifier les performances. Lorsqu'il est temps de voir à quoi ressemblera votre conception et de fonctionner en tant que pièce physique, nous proposons des échantillons usinés en 3D et CNC pour faire avancer votre projet plus loin sur le chemin de la production. En puisant dans notre expertise en ingénierie, les processus et les matériaux les plus rentables peuvent être appliqués à votre projet dès le départ.
Processus rationalisés
Our teams are familiar with working with Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) at the earliest stages of product development. We know what to look for and what to expect. The fewer surprises the better. Positive relationships we have cultivated with OEMs over the years mean a smoother transition from design to manufacturing for you.
Dynamique des fluides computationnelle
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis demonstrates how a system responds to conditions such as internal or external air- or water flow, identifying fluid velocities, pressures, and temperatures. Within minutes, our design engineer can evaluate an assortment of variables during simulation and review the impact of changes to existing designs. By utilizing CFD analysis during the design process, our design engineer is able to obtain a clear picture for making better informed decisions without having to create numerous prototypes for physical tests.
Le résultat? L'analyse CFD permet une mise sur le marché plus rapide tout en aidant à créer un produit plus performant au moindre coût.
Conception pour la fabrication
Design for Manufacturing (DFM) is the method of design for ease of manufacturing of the assortment of parts that will form the product after assembly. DFM is primarily concerned with reducing overall part production costs and minimizing the complexity of manufacturing operations.
Design for Manufacturing is the process of designing or engineering a product so that it is easy to manufacture at the lowest possible price. The process should include review of the raw material selection, secondary processes (finishing, plating), dimensional requirements, and even final packaging.
La conception pour la fabrication vise à:
- Reduce material, overhead, and labor cost
- Raccourcir le cycle de développement produit
- Se concentrer sur les normes pour réduire les coûts
Principes clés avec lesquels East West peut aider dans le processus DFM:
- Minimiser le nombre de pièces
- Standardiser les pièces et les matériaux
- Créer des assemblages modulaires
- Conception pour un assemblage efficace
- Minimiser la réorientation des pièces lors de l'assemblage et / ou de l'usinage
- Simplifiez et réduisez le nombre d'opérations de fabrication
- Spécifier les finitions de surface "acceptables" pour la fonctionnalité
