DFM with your CM: How to Save Time and Money

Last weekend engineers and hobbyists alike met up at local crowdfunding platform Crowd Supply's Teardown, a hardware conference held this year at the Pacific Northwest College of Art.

What is Teardown?

An event for hardware enthusiasts from around the world, Crowd's Supply's Teardown event offers attendees an opportunity to “celebrate, inspect, create, and, of course, tear down” hardware. The 3-day showcase takes place May 11-13 at the Pacific Northwest College of Art and includes not only hardware but also art, food, puzzles, workshops, tutorials and more. ControlTek President Andy LaFrazia was asked to participate in this year's event to share his expertise with new product developers.

ControlTek’s design engineering team modifies a new product design, improving product function and manufacturability saving the customer over $1,000,000 to date in manufacturing costs.

ControlTek can help at any stage of electronics product development but many of our partners choose to take advantage of ControlTek’s turnkey electronics manufacturing option to get the  most out of their manufacturing outsourcing

Turnkey electronics manufacturing means we handle every step of the electronics manufacturing process, including:

• Research and Development

• Product Design
