Abstract

Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DFMA) were developed in order to help designers identify the manufacturing and assembly difficulties during the early stage of designing process. By applying DFMA, the assembly cost and time can be reduced and DFMA also ensure a smooth transition from design to production phase. Based on this fact, this thesis will presents a case study done to a selected product by using two DFMA methodologies that are Lucas-Hull DFA and Bootluoyd-Dewhurst DFA methods. Based on the result of the analysis done, a new design will be proposed and both methods will be compared to identifY the strength and weakness of each method It is found from the study that by applying DFMA on the selected product, the product design had been optimized in term of assembly and manufactu1ing process and material selection
