5 Ways to Better Product Development - Die Cutting
Service Detail from JBC Technologies, Inc.
Ensure Seamless New Product Development (With Die Cutting)
The process of choosing your die cutting partner is filled with challenges.
Launching a new product with them shouldn't be.
Engage your die cutting supplier at the beginning of a project — it can accelerate implementation, speed sample turnaround, and reduce or even eliminate unexpected last-minute design changes.
Selecting a die cutting partner can be complicated. It should involve considerations deeper than price, quality, and delivery. Today, most die cutting service suppliers can offer value in areas like
- Product Integration
- Delivery Systems
- Product Design
- Quality
The most sophisticated die cutting manufacturers can also deliver complex engineering solutions, supply chain optimization programs, and value that goes above and beyond a box of finished parts.
HERE ARE 5 WAYS YOU CAN HELP ENSURE A SEAMLESS NEW PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT PROCESS WITH YOUR DIE CUTTING PARTNER
1. Keep an Open Mind & Manage Expectations
Share your goals and objectives with your die cutting partner up front and be prepared to change your mind.
Die cutters are not known to be sophisticated, with most considered to be "job shops" that make parts based on the design criteria provided by engineers.
We have experience working on numerous projects where a well-established fabricating technology commonly used in one market could be completely foreign to an engineer working in a different market.
A die cutter like JBC Technologies, with decades of experience making parts for multiple markets, can provide a diverse level of expertise unavailable from a supplier that operates almost exclusively in one specific market.
