The success of manufacturing critical components, such as ship shafts, gears, artillery or adaptor plates/rings, depends on their design and how well that design can be translated into a tangible, cost-effective, high-quality product. This is where Design for Manufacturability (DFM) comes into play. The significance of DFM rests in the forging process's role in creating a robust and resilient supply chain.
