S7E2 WEBINAR: Your Manufacturer is Stupid: Why Your Circuit Board Design Is Making Their Job Harder with Chris Denney

This episode is a recording of a webinar with guest Chris Denney.

Think your manufacturer keeps screwing up your circuit boards? The truth might be that the design itself is setting them up to fail.

In this webinar, we uncover the most common PCB design mistakes that frustrate manufacturers — and how engineers can prevent them.

This session is geared toward mechanical engineers who want to better understand how board layout and design choices impact manufacturability, communication, and cost. You’ll walk away knowing how to collaborate more effectively with your electrical counterparts and PCB manufacturers to avoid painful (and expensive) surprises down the line.

Electrical engineers will also benefit from real-world DFM insights and practical takeaways they can apply immediately.

Learn how to:

• Identify design choices that make PCB assembly harder than it needs to be
• Communicate more effectively with PCB vendors and electrical teammates
• Design in a way that reduces rework, waste, and frustration for everyone
