Abstract

Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Design for Assembly (OF A) are
comprehensive approach to integrating the design process with production methods,
materials, process planning, testing, and quality assurance. DFM and DFA require a
fundamental understanding of the characteristics, capabilities, and limitations of
materials, manufacturing processes, machinery, equipment, and tooling and
variability in machine performance, dimensional accuracy and surface finish of the
workpiece, processing time, and the effect of processing methods on product quality.
Establishing quantitative relationships is essential in order to be able to analyze and
optimize a design for ease of manufacturing and assembly at minimum product cost.
This project focused on the assessment of implementation of the DFM and DFA
during prototype development process. Centrifuge was selected as the example in this
project. The centrifuge was designed for offshore facility. Information such as design,
parts manufacturing process, and assembly were analyzed in this project to assess the
implementation of this approach during the prototype development cycle. It is noted
that the application of the DFM and DFA have contribute to the success of the
prototype development
