to Streamline the
Design Check Process
Gord Vander Vliet
Enterprise Tool & Die, LLC
Scope
• The purpose of this presentation is to look at a few
challenges that were expending many hours in the
design check process at our facility, and then
examine some possible solutions.
• Keep in mind that the solutions shown here are not
the only options for solving these challenges.
• It’s a good practice to be conscious of ways to
eliminate repetitive processes in your system.
Enterprise Tool & Die Background
• We manufacture stamping dies for several different
industries.
• Basically, every tool we build is custom. Therefore,
we don’t utilize a large amount of pre-built templates
for the individual stations required to produce the
finished part.
• We do use a few standard subassemblies and
predefined start blocks in all of our designs.
