Unique product design process helps L. & M. Precision satisfy customers

L. & M. uses a unique three-step design process.

L. & M. Precision Products Inc. has made standard and custom precision-machined components for 60 years with quality as the focus. The company stays successful by working closely with clients to make sure every product meets or exceeds exact specifications, while upon request, it will recommend design improvements to boost efficiency and quality or lower costs.

To continue manufacturing the most optimal, cost-efficient parts, L. & M. adheres to a unique efficient design review process.

Review, design, and approval

The team follows three critical steps in this efficient design process for every product, including parts for welding, assemblies, connectors, fittings, fasteners, bushings, washers, spacers, and threaded parts. Among the sectors served by these components are oil and gas, welding, healthcare, the automotive industry, and many more. The three steps of the L. & M. efficient design review process:

1. Initial review – The client provides an initial design concept in samples or design prints to request a quote. The quote includes total volume of parts and (if applicable) release frequency, which affects price.
2. Design and estimate – The engineering department reviews the design and provides any necessary feedback, including any possible improvements that could boost the effectiveness or cost-effectiveness of the products upon request. Then the client receives a quote from the sales team on the pricing and required lead time.
3. First article approval – L. & M. follows a first-article-approval process on all new production setups. The company can provide a sample part for confirmation to the customer before the full production run, if the customer wants it. If necessary, certification and traceability are always available.

With this proven process, L. & M. engineers and quality technicians ensure all parts meet or exceed customer specifications, even before the project begins and throughout the entire process to completion. The goal is to provide products that are always above and beyond expectations through these comprehensive quality-assurance practices and innovative equipment.

With this method, L. & M. maintains an enviable reputation for client satisfaction and high quality. It allows the company and its customers to enjoy a solid relationship of cooperation and trust that results in a high percentage of new customers and repeat orders.
