Abstract
  • Today's manufacturing environment is characterized by competition and continuous change in product and process requirements. The concept of "design for manufacturability" integrates product specifications with manufacturing capabilities by considering the design and manufacturing phases as an integrated system, evaluating the combined system during the design phase of a product , and adjusting the design for maximum efficiency and production economics. This research focuses on one aspect of design for manufacturability, that of process technology evaluation for a specified product design. The objective of the proposed system developed in this study is to evaluate technology alternatives for manufacturing a specified part design and to identify the best combination of product-process characteristics that would minimize production costs within the constraints set by the product's functional requirements and available processing technology. The research objectives are accomplished by developing a simulation based analysis system. The user inputs product specifications through structural screens. The system maintains data bases of work and tool materials, and machining operations. Based on user input, the system then extracts appropriate information from these data bases, and analyzes of the production system in terms of production economics, and other operational measures such as throughput times and work-in-process inventories. Sensitivity analysis may then be performed to explore tradeoffs in design and production parameters. The system is completely integrated, and a user with no prior experience of either simulation or data base technology can use the system effectively.
