Drug Delivery device design - time to quality
Powered by Robust Design.
With six four-hour online modules powered by Robust Design, two design expert instructors and 11 likeminded design engineering classmates.
Master Robust Design with RD8 Academy.
The RD8 Engineering Academy Design Time to Quality path consists of 2 courses - Essential and Core. If you complete both Essential and Core, you will get a Robust Design Certification.
Aditionally, we offer a company specific session where we analyse your design.

Essential
Understand the Robust Design Principles and learn to apply basic principles of Kinematic design.
Core
Learn to analyse products and evaluate mechanical designs withthe RD8 Framework.
Apply
For companies with multiple participants we offer a seventh session where we analyse one of your designs.

Practical Information
The courses are held online via Microsoft Teams - join from anywhere in the world.
Participants work with own designs – value generated during and immediately after course
Virtual break-out rooms (by company) – no confidential information shared with other participants
Soft Benefits:
Common language and metrics
Data-driven decision-making for interface design and DFM optimisation
Highlights
Learn to avoid design mistakes made by 500 mechanical engineers and get help from software automatically detecting design issues
Courses offered by the RD8. Engineering Academy are rated 4.5 out of 5.0 by the more than 1.000 program graduates.
Typical participants are engineers involved in the product development process from concept over design and industrialization to manufacturing and assembly.
Curriculum also covers part and interface optimisation to drive tolerance and DFM benefits – reduced number of specifications and eased tolerance grades
Curriculum includes series of interactive exercises and confidential discussion of your current design project with the expert faculty members
Once certified, your future designs will typically see fewer failures modes and risks (eliminated by design) and be created in a more efficient process (fewer iterations to reach performance target).
Essential
This essential introductory course establishes a strong foundation in Robust Design, preparing learners for advanced methodologies within a structured three-step learning journey.
It introduces the RD8 Robust Design Framework and demonstrates how fundamental principles of kinematic design support reliable and efficient product architectures.
Participants gain insight into the core disciplines of Robust Design, learning how to analyze interfaces, product functions, and sensitivity to design variations. The course emphasizes objective evaluation of design quality and robustness using data-driven methods supported by the RD8 Robust Design Platform.
By the end, learners are equipped to prioritize and organize development activities with a clear focus on mechanical efficiency, reliability, and informed decision-making.

Core
This core intermediate course builds on foundational knowledge to strengthen design robustness through deeper mechanical analysis.
Learners apply the full Robust Design workflow, from defining the ideal concept to detailed verification, while managing increased system complexity. The course places strong emphasis on kinematics, constraints, and special kinematic elements to improve mechanical performance across different product states.
Participants use the RD8 Product Development Platform to identify, prioritize, and resolve critical robustness issues based on the four types of potential problems.
By advancing into detailed design analysis, learners develop flexible and predictable functional features that significantly enhance product adaptability and reliability.
