A Different Perspective for Seeing Products
How do you look at any product? See just a thing that performs a certain function? In this episode I discuss my perspective on how I see a product – as an assembly of materials – and how it influences how I help design products to meet performance, reliability, and cost goals.
Michael Pfeifer is a metallurgist and metals engineer. He works with design and manufacturing clients to help with component materials selection, manufacturing process development, supplier evaluation, failure analysis and root cause analysis.
