Design for Manufacturability Concurrent Engineering How to Design for Low Cost Design in High Quality Design for Lean Manufacture and Design Quickly for Fast Production
Author: David M. Anderson

This book shows how to design products for all aspects of manufacturability and use multifunctional product development teams and Concurrent Engineering principles to: DESIGN FOR LOW COST. The book shows how to actually design low-cost products. Chapters 1, 2,and 9 show how to minimize the 80% of a product’s cost that is committed ... more »by the design and hard to remove later. Chapters 3 and 8 show how to optimize the concept/architecture stage where 60% of cost is committed. Chapters 6 and 7 shows dozens of ways to minimize and measure total cost. DESIGN IN HIGH QUALITY. Chapter 10 shows how to design quality and reliability into the product with poka-yoke and 50 design guidelines. DESIGN FOR LEAN MANUFACTURE. Chapter 4 shows how to design products for all the flexible paradigms: lean production, JIT, build-to-order, and mass customization. Chapter 5 presents very effective standardization tools. DESIGN QUICKLY FOR FAST PRODUCTION. Chapter 3 shows how thorough up-front work is the key to quickly developing products, avoiding changes, & fast ramps. Over 200 design guidelines are presented with the latest new methodologies from the author’s DFM seminars and consulting. BOOK OUTLINE Part I: Design Methodology Chapter 1 introduces the concept of design for manufacturability and shows the problems that can be avoided when products are designed for manufacturability. It also shows how to overcome resistance, understand the myths and realities of product development, and motivate engineers and managers to design for manufacturability and do it right the first time. The chapter concludes with benefits of DFM. Chapter 2 shows how to use concurrent engineering to develop products in multi-functional design teams lead by an empowered team leader. Such teams are most effective when they have early and active participation of all specialties. The chapter shows the problems when this does not happen and how to ensure availability of resources. Just as Chapter 1 showed that the majority of the cost is committed by the concept, the key to getting products quickly to market is a thoroughly optimized concept/architecture phase. Product development phases are presented with the tasks that enable good DFM including: defining products to satisfy the voice of the customer with QFD; optimizing the product architecture and strategies for operations and supply chains; raising and resolving the issues early; concurrently designing the product and processes; and launching into production. Chapter 3, Design for Everything, focuses early on a wide scope of design considerations. Early work on these considerations will minimize arbitrary decisions, which will reduce several categories of risk and minimize change orders. The chapter also shows how to use creativity and brainstorming to develop better products. Part II: Flexibility Chapter 4 shows how to design products for lean production, build-to-order and mass customization Chapter 5 shows very effective procedures to standardize parts and materials. Part III: Cost Reduction Chapter 6 emphasizes the importance of minimizing the total cost and then shows many ways to minimize total cost by design. Chapter 7 emphasizes the importance of quantifying total cost and then shows easy ways to measure total cost. Part IV: Design Guidelines Chapter 8 presents 64 design guidelines for product design, including assembly, fastening, test, repair, and maintenance. Chapter 9 presents 42 design guidelines for designing parts including how to design fabricated parts and parts to be handled by automation. The chapter also has a section on tolerance step functions and how to specify optimal tolerances. Part V: Customer Satisfaction Chapter 10 shows how to design in quality and reliability with 28 quality guidelines and sections on mistake-proofing (poka-yoke) and designing to minimize errors. The chapter also shows product q
