There are three critical stages in L. & M.'s efficient design review process.

Since 1962, L. & M. Precision Products Inc. has manufactured standard and custom-designed precision-machined components, with quality as one of its highest priorities. What keeps the company successful is its willingness to work closely with customers to ensure that every product meets or exceeds the precise specifications, as well as making suggestions for design improvement for superior efficiency or quality, or to lower costs. L. & M. adheres to a unique efficient design review process to achieve this. This is how the team makes the most optimal, cost-effective products.

The three critical steps

There are three critical steps to this efficient design process. L. & M. follows these steps for all of its products, including components for welding, assemblies, connectors, fittings, fasteners, bushings, washers, spacers, threaded parts, and more. These products serve users in such industries as oil and gas, welding, healthcare, and the automotive sector, to name a few.

L. & M. follows these steps in its efficient design review process:

  1. Initial review: The customer provides an initial design concept in the form of samples or design prints to request a quote. This quote includes total volume of parts and, if applicable, release frequency, which affects pricing.
  2. Design and estimate: The engineering department reviews the design and offers required feedback, including any possible improvements that could enhance the product’s effectiveness or cost-efficiency. After design and revision review, the customer is then provided a quote from the sales team on the necessary lead time and pricing.
  3. First article approval: The team follows a first-article-approval process on all new production setups. L. & M. can offer a sample part for confirmation to the customer before the full production run, if the client wants it. Certification and traceability are always available if required.

This proven process helps L. & M. engineers and quality technicians make sure all components meet exact client specifications, even before the project begins. Comprehensive quality-control practices and innovative equipment ensure that products are above and beyond expectations.

This method allows L. & M. to maintain an enviable reputation for high quality and customer satisfaction. It enables L. & M. and its customers to enjoy a strong relationship of trust and cooperation that brings a very high percentage of repeat orders and new clients.
