Additive technologies allow for complex, multi-piece assemblies to be simplified to fewer components. This results in fewer operations, fewer joints, and a simpler supply chain. Not only will this save cost over traditional methods, but often the result is a more robust design. Typically, the more aggressive design engineers are in integrating assemblies, the more cost effective the design becomes. RQM is able to leverage vast experience in this area, and will help designers quickly understand which features drive cost and which can be used to generate substantial wins.
