Powerful Design for Manufacturing(DFM) Software-DFMPro

Deliver High Quality Designs Faster at Lower Costs

The realization of digital twins through the digital thread is central to digital transformation in manufacturing, driving innovative business models and improving traditional practices. A Design for Manufacturability (DFM) strategy accelerates this transformation, enhancing engineering productivity and reducing costs.
DFMPro, a CAD-integrated software, identifies and resolves manufacturability issues early in the design phase, streamlining processes, optimizing geometric dimensions, and lowering product development costs, all while supporting sustainable product design and ensuring high-quality outcomes.

HCL DFMPro for SOLIDWORKSSolidworks

DFMPro for SOLIDWORKS is a DFM software for SOLIDWORKS CAD platform that helps designers to check their designs for manufacturability and assembly within SOLIDWORKS interface and take corrective actions without multiple rounds of design iterations. The results can be visualized and interpreted conveniently in a 3D environment, making DFM validation process highly simple and cost effective.

DFMPro Cost Add-on

DFMPro cost add-on provides early cost visibility to design engineers right from when designs are getting created

  • Evaluates design choices based on material,features, geometry & manufacturing regions
  • Identifies expensive design features impacting cost due to manufacturability and get recommendations for cost reduction
  • Tracks the cost as designs are getting created
  • Apply standarization and component re-use

DFMPro Delivers Results

Now 3D design data of our products are checked by the DFMPro in the design process. Our conventional checking process by designers was highly time-consuming. In contrast, theDFMPro checking is truly fast and reliable in searching the parts to be redesigned or corrected, and the checking criteria can be customized for the appropriate checking of our own products.
As a result, we successfully reduced 75% of the checking time of the wall thickness to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of our design improvement before the release of drawings.”
