DFA är en metod som handlar om att designa en produkt så att dess egenskaper kommer att ha en inverkan på monteringsvänligheten av produkten. Det främsta målet med DFA är att reducera antalet ingående detaljer i en produkt. Atlas Copco Tools är ett företag som har påbörjat sin resa mot ständiga förbättringar och fokuserat sig bland annat på att förbättra produktutvecklingsprocessen. Därav har företaget visat ett stort intresse för DFA-metoden som ett arbetssätt inom konstruktionsavdelningen. Idag använder sig inte Atlas Copco Tools av en specifik metod som stödjer DFA-metodiken vid utveckling av deras produkter. Den stora frågan i detta examensarbete är därför huruvida DFA lönar sig att implementeras på Atlas Copco Tools i deras produktutecklingsprocess och i så fall hur arbetet med DFA ska ske samt vilka tillvägagångssätt ska användas. En studie på företag som framgångsrikt implementerat DFA i deras produktutecklingsprocess har utförts. Studien var gjord med hjälp av benchmarking och de intervjuade företagen var DeLaval i Tumba, Scania i Södertälje och Sony Mobile Communications i Lund. Vi utförde benchmarking med syftet att undersöka hur dessa tre företag arbetar med DFA idag och vilka medel de använt sig utav för att implementera det framgångsrikt. Vidare intervjuades konstruktörer på Atlas Copco Tools, delvis för att få en giltig bild av hur produktutvecklingsprocessen går till idag men också för att ta reda på hur de som målgrupp föredrar att arbeta med DFA. Förutom detta gjordes studiebesök till produktionsanläggningen i Tierp där vi testade att montera mutterdragaren Tensor ST 10 Revo och annan viktig information om monteringsvänlighet samlades in. All faktainsamling var analyserad och en checklista som stödjer DFA-metodiken var framtagen. Checklistan testades och utvärderades på en produkt från Atlas Copco Tools som befinner sig i förstudiefasen. Till checklistan adderades kompletterande riktlinjer som ett hjälpande dokument för att besvara frågorna i checklistan och för konstruktören något att eftersträva vid utformning av produkter. Examensarbetet resulterade också i en beräkning på monteringsvänligheten av mutterdragaren Tensor ST 10 Revo. Utöver detta gavs några specifika rekommendationer på hur DFA borde implenteras på Atlas Copco Tools. Nyckelord DFA, checklista, implementering, monteringsvänlighet, produktutvecklingsprocess. Bachelor of Science Thesis TMT 2012:69 Evaluation of "Design For Assembly" as a working approach at Atlas Copco Tools Alexander Anturi Jenny Tiger Approved Examiner KTH Supervisor KTH 2012-08-20 Name Jan Linell Commissioner Contact person at company Atlas Copco Tools AB Andris Danebergs Abstract This report is the result of a thesis work in which an evaluation of the DFA (Design For Assembly) method as a working approach at Atlas Copco Tools has been done. DFA is a method about considering design features that may have a significant relevance on the assembly efficiency of a product. Its main goal is to reduce the number of parts included in a product. Atlas Copco Tools is a company in search of continuous improvements and from that it has been focused on, among others, on enhancing the product development process. Therefore, the company shows interest in the DFA method as a working approach within the design department. Today Atlas Copco Tools do not use any particular method that supports the DFA methodology in their development of products. The question is whether DFA is worth implementing at Atlas Copco Tools in the product development process and in that case, how exactly DFA can be implemented and which approaches should be used. A research of companies that successfully implemented DFA on their product development process has been done. The research was done using benchmarking and the contacted companies were DeLaval, Scania and Sony Mobile Communications. We benchmarked in order to find out how these companies work with DFA and how to implement DFA in a successful way. Furthermore, interviews with the designers from Atlas Copco Tools were done; partly to get a valid picture of the process development process and also to find out how they would prefer to work with DFA. In addition, excursions to the production plant in Tierp were made, where we tested to assemble the nutrunner Tensor ST 10 Revo and important information about assembly efficiency was gathered. All the collected information was analyzed and a checklist that supports the DFA method was developed. The checklist was tested and evaluated on a specific product from Atlas Copco Tools. Additionally, the checklist was added with complementary guidelines that explain each question on the checklist and also provides with helpful DFA advises. This thesis work also resulted in a calculation of the assembly efficiency on the nutrunner Tensor ST 10 Revo. Moreover some specifics recommendations on how DFA should be implemented at Atlas Copco Tools were given. Key-words DFA, checklist, implementation, assembly efficiency, product development process. Preface This thesis work has been performed at the School of Industrial Engineering and Management at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) for Atlas Copco Tools AB. The thesis covers 10 weeks of fulltime work and is the final part of our bachelor education in mechanical engineering. We would like to thank our supervisors Andris Danebergs at the R&D department in Nacka and Morgan Rhodin at the production plant in Tierp for good guidance and gratifying moments throughout the thesis work. During this thesis work the authors of this report have received help and support from many, different people. Thanks to: Mikael Hultqvist, DeLaval Dick Bergman and Erik Jaenssen, Scania Mattias Bognäs, Sony Mobile Communications Furthermore, we thank the designers and the operators at Atlas Copco Tools for their help in getting us to understand the processes and patiently answering our questions. We also have to mention the helpfulness of our colleagues and friendly attitude we have experienced during our time at Atlas Copco Tools. At last we would like to thank our supervisor at KTH Jan Linell, for rewarding and insightful conversations during the thesis work. Hopefully this thesis work would be useful for Atlas Copco Tools in their future work with DFA (Design For Assembly).

However, the implementation of DFAA is not clearly defined. Therefore, the purpose of this master thesis is to investigate and contribute with knowledge of how DFAA should be implemented into an organization, such as Company Y. Several interviews have been conducted to establish a current state analysis, to receive an understanding of the current problems at Company Y and how to address them. A benchmarking study was conducted, where the three companies Ericsson, Company X and Scania were interviewed. All three companies have successfully implemented DFA and were interviewed with the purpose to obtaining their best practices. The study also included an early implementation of DFAA, where a software based DFA2-method created by Eskilander (2001) was tested on a current product and a new developed design concept at Company Y. Based on this a recommended workflow of the evaluation could be attained. Based on the empirical gatherings several recommendations of how DFAA should be implemented into the organization could be made.

  • A Cost-Effective Knowledge-Based Reasoning System for Design for Automation
    1 A cost-effective knowledge-based reasoning system for design for automation E M Shehab1* and H S Abdalla2 1Department of Manufacturing, Cranfield University, Cranfield, UK 2Department of Product and Spatial Design, De Montfort University, Leicester, UK The manuscript was received on 3 February 2005 and was accepted after revision for publication on 16 December 2005. DOI: 10.1243/095440554JEM298 Abstract: Design for assembly automation (DFAA) is an important part of the concurrent engineering strategy for reduction of product manufacturing costs and lead times. An intelligent knowledge-based system (KBS) for design for automation and early cost modelling within a concurrent engineering environment has been developed. This paper focuses upon the development of the design for an assembly automation system. The system framework encompasses an extensive knowledge base reasoning system, a CAD system, a design analysis for automation module, a design improvement suggestion module, and a user interface. The development process of the system involved three main stages: creating the KBS, developing the design improvement module, and integrating the KBS with the CAD system. The developed system has the capability to: (a) select the most economic assembly technique for the product at an early design stage; (b) estimate the assembly time and cost for manual, automatic, and robotic assembly methods; and (c) analyse the product design for automation and provide the designers with design improvement suggestions of a product to simplify assembly operations without any compromise of the product functionality. The above capabilities of the system have been demonstrated and validated through a real case study. Keywords: design for automation, concurrent engineering, knowledge-based systems, assembly cost estimation 1 INTRODUCTION good design from the assembly point of view [7].

  • Genetic Algorithm Optimization of Product Design for Environmental Impact Reduction
    GENETIC ALGORITHM OPTIMIZATION OF PRODUCT DESIGN FOR ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REDUCTION JULIROSE GONZALES THESIS SUBMITTED IN FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY FACULTY OF ENGINEERING UNIVERSITY OF MALAYA KUALA LUMPUR 2018 ABSTRACT The growing environmental awareness of today’s consumers has put the manufacturing companies with the burden of taking responsibility for their own product’s environmental impact. This incited the need to develop product management systems which focus on minimizing a product’s impact across its life cycle. However, a survey conducted on Malaysian design companies suggests that there are no systems available for them to include environmental considerations in their product design processes. This dissertation presents a study on product design optimization which focuses on the inclusion of the potential environmental impact in the design consideration. The aim of this research is to develop a methodology that will aid designers to reduce the potential environmental impact of a product’s design, which does not require them to train additional skills in environmental impact analysis. Analysis of the effect of changing the product design parameters such as its dimensions, and basic features on the environmental impact of machining process in terms of its power consumption, waste produced and the chemicals and other consumables used up during the process is the key method in this research. A novel feature-based product design methodology based on an integrated CAD-LCA approach is developed which analyzes a product design’s environmental impact. Genetic Algorithm is applied to the product design parameters to create a feedback system in order to get the best possible product design solutions with the least environmental impact within the product design functionality limitation.

The final version is available online: http://www.tandfonline.com/10.1080/17452007.2020.1768505 5 6 Abstract 7 Design for manufacture and assembly (DfMA) has become a buzzword amid the global 8 resurgence of prefabrication and construction industrialization. Some argued that DfMA is 9 hardly new, as there are concepts such as buildability, lean construction, value management, 10 and integrated project delivery in place already. Others believe that DfMA is a new direction 11 to future construction. This paper aims to review the development of DfMA in manufacturing 12 and its status quo in construction, and clarify its similarities and differences to other concepts. 13 A multi-step research method is adopted in this study: First, an analytical framework is 14 generated; Secondly, a literature review is conducted on DfMA in general, and DfMA-like 15 concepts in the AEC industry; The third step is to compare DfMA with related concepts. This 16 study reveals that DfMA as a philosophy is hardly new in construction, and the empirical 17 implementation of many DfMA guidelines has begun in the AEC industry.
