Abstract

Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFMA) is a set of product evaluation tool developed to ensure that a product is designed so that it can be easily and efficiently manufactured and assembled with a minimum effort, time, and cost. Products designed using DFMA principles should have higher quality and reliability than those developed using traditional design methods. DFMA also ensures that the transition from the design phase to the production phase is as smooth and rapid as possible. In this project, DFMA is applied to Fire Fighting Machine. Fire Fighting Machine is a vehicle that used to help fireman to extinguish the fire. The numbers of part in this machine are reduced but the function is still the same as before improvement, thus the cost of this machine decreases. In this project, all the process of DFMA clearly stated. The comparisons to verify the part changed on fire fighting machine were made between DFMA simulation and by manual DFMA analysis.
