German term
Fertigbarkeit
German to English

Besteht seitens der Teile-Hersteller (z.B. Fachzentrum FT) keine Forderung zur Verbesserung der Fertigbarkeit der STANZTEILE.
I am thinking "manufacturability" but found "feasibility" somewhere.

Design for Manufacturability bezeichnet die Anpassung einer Produktidee an die Produktionsbedingungen, sowie die Umsetzung des Entwurfs für die großtechnische Produktion und gleichzeitig das Ausräumen der Probleme, die sich einer Markteinführung entgegenstellen.

Manufacturability
This is just my take from the forum provided at LEO. I must say it is not a common German word IMO.

Oops someone was there before! Maybe to differ "Producibility" is another option! It does not sound like good old English but nevertheless many native sites (US & UK) use it according to google. Surprise, surprise indeed!

Along the lines of whether it is feasible to build something or not "feasability" is maybe an option.

: Why should a native speaker of good old English prefer ‘feasability’ with an ‘a’ to ‘feasibility’ with an ‘i’?

Who said they should whether correctly spelled or not? The meaning is questionable in this context. How abaout producibility which I offered to differ from the other answerer? Correctly spelled or not it is awkard. IMO not as idiomatic as can be! :)

producibility
I am not the desired native speaker, but with a bit of reverse research I found this term in LEO.

It is my understanding that a feasibility study investigates the cost/benefit ratio to produce a gadget for which the producibility (or manufacturability) has already been established. In other words, the study answers the question: it can be manufactured, but does it make sense to do it?
In the case at hand, the discussion seems to focus on the improvement of the technical production process. In my humble non-native opinion, "feasibility" would not work in this context.
