Our Process

A partnership with Hankscraft is a collaboration, and the path to a successful product launch varies for each project. Our global resources and transparent project management ensure clear communication and give you confidence and control throughout the process.

Our involvement typically spans the following stages of development

01.

Statement of Work (SOW)​

We carefully review the project’s details, ensuring that every requirement is thoroughly reviewed. Our goal is to deliver a solution that meets your expectations.

02.

Engineering Prints and 3D models

These documents and files serve as the project’s blueprint, capturing all product specifications. Our skilled team maintains effective communication and strong project execution.

03.

Material specifications and qualifying​

We thoroughly analyze materials for your project, ensuring that we meet your specifications and collaborating with you to review product validation and durability testing to meet your requirements.

04.

Proof of concepts and prototyping

We bring your ideas to life through proof of concepts and prototypes. Design changes are accommodated, and prototypes are created to align with your preferences. Our approach ensures that your vision is realized.

05.

Design Failure Mode Effect and Analysis​ (DFMEA)

Through DFMEA, we identify and address potential design failure modes. Our team evaluates components, functions, and interactions to mitigate risks and enhance the resilience of the final product. Informed decision-making and necessary modifications ensure a dependable outcome.

06.

Process Failure Mode and Effects Analysis​ (PFMEA)

With PFMEA, we identify potential process failures and their impact on product quality. Our team assesses each step, implementing improvements and controls to ensure consistent product quality.

07.

Bill of MateriaL (BOM)

A Bill of Material (BOM) is created that lists all the required components for your product. This ensures accuracy and efficiency in procurement and production, meeting the project timeline and budget.

08.

Test Plan

We develop a comprehensive test plan to validate your product’s performance and functionality. Through various tests, we ensure it meets the required standards. By analyzing results and making necessary adjustments, we deliver reliable and high-performing products.

09.

Design for Manufacturability (DFM)

We optimize the design for manufacturability (DFM), considering assembly ease, material selection, and cost-efficiency. Our team collaborates to enhance manufacturability without compromising functionality or quality. DFM streamlines production, improving quality, reducing cost, and ensuring efficient manufacturing processes.

10.

Prototyping and production

We establish the correct steps for production release, utilizing established techniques including First Article Inspection (FAI), Pre-Production Approval Process (PPAP), Run at Rate (RAR), and engineering production builds. With attention to detail and strict quality control measures, we deliver a finished product that meets expectations.
