Design for Additive Manufacturing

Reimagining your manufacturing processes can seem daunting, but it doesn’t have to be. By tapping into our advanced production infrastructure, proprietary software technology, and team of experts, you can quickly lower the barriers to innovation for your business.

When you’re ready to make end-use parts with additive manufacturing, you need to ensure they are made repeatable and in accordance with your quality specifications. 8 Engineering will lead you through a production part approval process for additive. 8 Engineering has a team of experts that has qualified parts in automotive, medical device, aerospace, and consumer goods.

This includes:

  • Supplier audits and qualification
  • Production Part Approval Process (PPAP)
  • Process validation (IQ, OQ, PQ)
  • Part traceability in accordance with ISO 9001 / AS9100D
  • Statistical process control (SPC)
  • Process failure mode and effects analysis (P-FMEA) and control plans

Volume Production

When it comes to the needs of your supply chain, we know that it’s rarely a case of “one solution fits all.” Whether you’re trying to hyperspeed production for a product, or need more efficient options for low-volume SKUs, 8 Engineering can help you think differently about your supply chain operations.

Reach out to 8 Engineering to discuss challenges in your current supply chain, including:

  • Responding to sudden increased or decreased demand
  • Low-volume production
  • Bridge-to-tooling
  • End-of-life product support
  • Mass customization
  • On-demand or rapid production
