Abstract

Boothroyd Dewhurst (B-D) Design for Assembly (DFA) is method used to measure the assembly efficiency during assembly process in industry. There are two approach in B-D DFA which are manual approach and software approach. Both approaches have their own standard on the assembly evaluations which have cause differences in the results. The software approach is systematically formulated from the manual approach. Therefore the DFA of design efficiency is supposed to be equal or at least a little error percentage between them. The percentage error might be due to misjudgement during part assembly. Therefore the study the factor that affect the percentage error of design efficiency between manual approach and software approach of Boothroyd Dewhurst (DFA) perform and analyse in order to understand the function of these method in evaluate the product. The Manual approach follow the table in “Product Design for Manufacturing and Assembly “ third edition by G. Boothroyd, P. Dewhurst and W,A, Knight. (copyright Boothroyd Dewhurst 1999, Inc) .The software approach use the Boothroyd Dewhurst (DFA) Design for Assembly 9.3(2006).The result than analyse and compare to evaluate the percentage difference and determine the reason for the difference to occur.
