  2. 1. Automated Cost Estimation of Product Variants - A Tool for Enhanced Producibility

    Author : Fredrik Elgh; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Design for Producibility; Cost Estimation; Producibility Evaluation; Information Modelling; System Development; Variant Design; Process Planning; Design Automation;

    Abstract : The estimation of product cost is a central activity in the design process. Most companies act in an environment of high competition where the market sets the product price. This, in combination with a focus on satisfying the shareholders demand for return on investment, results in a focus on cost as a constraint. READ MORE

  4. 2. Design for Producibility in Fabricated Aerospace Components - A framework for predicting and controlling geometrical variation and weld quality defects during multidisciplinary design

    Author : Julia Madrid; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Quality Assurance; Welding; Aerospace; Design for Producibility; Welding simulation; Variation Management; Design for Manufacturing; robust design;

    Abstract : In the aerospace industry, weight reduction has been one of the key factors in making aircraft more fuel efficient in order to satisfy environmental demands and increase competitiveness. One strategy adopted by aircraft component suppliers to reduce weight has been fabrication, in which small cast or forged parts are welded together into a final shape. READ MORE

  5. 3. Computer-Supported Design for Producibility : Principles and Models for System Realisation and Utilisation

    Author : Fredrik Elgh; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Design for Producibility; Application System Development; Application System Utilisation; Information Modelling; Manufacturing Requirement; Design Automation; Cost Estimation;

    Abstract : For many products, the adaptation to customer specifications is essential and requires flexible product design and manufacture while maintaining competitive pricing. Engineering design is often concerned with striking a good balance between product properties, e.g. performance, and the resources required to manufacture and assemble the product. READ MORE

  6. 4. Platform Design for Producibility: Early-Stage Modeling and Assessment Support

    Author : Jonas Landahl; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Systems engineering; Mass customization; Platform design; Reuse of design and production information; Enhanced function-means modeling; Set-Based Concurrent Engineering; Producibility assessment; Variety;

    Abstract : In industry, platforms are commonly adopted to reduce unique parts among a variety of distinct product variants, which have proven to be cost-effective within a single platform lifecycle. However, when the platform becomes obsolete or modifications are required to capture changing customer and production needs and requirements, manufacturers often spill tears over the time-consuming and costly processes of reusing and adapting the current platform structure into new.

  7. 5. Design For Manufacturing and Producibility in Fabricated Aerospace Structures

    Author : Julia Madrid; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; DFM; Producibility; Process Capability Data; Welding.; Variation Management;

    Abstract : Aircraft component suppliers must adopt new design strategies in order to absorb market growth and become more competitive at the same time as they satisfy environmental demands. To deal with this situation, weight reduction has been the key to success and have made jet engines more fuel efficient. READ MORE
