  1. 1. Robust Form Division - Manging the Effect of Manufacturing Variation

    Author : Andreas Dagman; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; tolerancing; split-line; empirical studies; platform-based products; method development; visual sensitivity; form division; geometric variation.; robust design;

    Abstract : Product development is a necessity for manufacturing companies to keep market shares as well as gaining new ones. Decisions made in the beginning of the process will affect the final product to a large extent. It is thereby of great importance to be able to detect possible obstacles in the early phases of the product development process. READ MORE

  2. 2. Minimizing the Effect of Geometric Variation in Compliant Assemblies

    Author : Stefan Dahlström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; FEA; Compliant assembly evaluation; Tolerancing; sheet metal assembly;

    Abstract : Sheet metal assemblies are often used as support structures in automobiles, airplanes and appliances. These structures not only provide a frame for other modules to be assembled, but also give the product its aesthetic form. All assembly processes are affected by part and process variation.

  3. 3. Variation simulation of sheet metal assemblies for geometrical quality : parameter modeling and analysis

    Author : Stefan Dahlström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; tolerancing; geometrical variation; variation simulation; sheet metal assembly; virtual verification; geometrical quality;

    Abstract : The automotive industry deals with an increased demand for virtual verification of the geometrical quality of the product. The aim is to reduce the need for adjusting the assembly process to deliver a product with high quality. READ MORE

  4. 4. Optics for Earth Observation Instruments

    Author : Arvid Hammar; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; off-axis; free-form mirrors; measurements; stray light; spline horns; THz; reflector optics; satellites; scientific instruments; diamond turning; tolerancing; telescopes;

    Abstract : The optical system is an essential part of every remote sensing instrument used for detecting electromagnetic waves. Careful design, fabrication and characterization is therefore crucial, especially for satellite-borne missions where the possibility of post-launch repairs is highly limited. READ MORE

  5. 5. Managing Geometrical Variation through Optimization and Visualization

    Author : Johan Lööf; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; variation simulation; tolerancing; Tolerance allocation; locating scheme optimization; geometry assurance; visualization of variation; tolerance analysis;

    Abstract : All manufacturing processes are afflicted by variation that causes deviations in critical dimensions in the final product. Geometrical variation results in form and size deviation in individual parts. Assembly variation comes from defects in assembly equipment, and influence how parts are mounted together. READ MORE
