Chapter Assessment for Product Design for Manufacturability




Manufacturing system designer has to assess the product design for which he is designing the manufacturing system for manufacturability.


The basic questions to be asked during the analysis:

Manufacturing:

Does the design of any part require unfamiliar equipment or methods?
Can we acquire the equipment and trained manpower?

What fixtures or assembly aids will be required in assembly? Can we design and develop them?



Quality - From quality angle, do we require higher quality machines?

Test Engineering - Do we have concepts for testing components and testing finished products?
