Technical Training

Insure that your engineers are using the best product development practices. The methods covered in these courses are proven to increase product quality and reduce development cost. All technical training is interactive using your products as examples and exercises. Ullman is expert in the practice of these methods having used them, taught them, and written about them.

• Best Practices in Product Development:  A four day introduction to most current best practices. Based on the book, The Mechanical Design Process, it has been presented over twenty times.
• Robust Design: A three-four day introduction to Taguchi's method for developing products that are insensitive to uncertainties, and to the design of experiments.
• Robust Decisions for Technical Teams:  A two day course on how to insure you make the best possible decisions when information is uncertain, evolving and conflicting.
• Failure Modes and Effects Analysis:  A one day course on how to understand and eliminate product failures either during the design process or after the product is in the field.
• Design for Manufacture and Assembly:  A one day course on how to take manufacturing and assembly considerations into account early in the product development process.
