Engineering Design Handbook. Design Guidance for Producibility

Abstract

One of the prime objectives of the handbook on producibility is to reemphasize the fact that the design agency developing a commodity has a distinct influence on subsequent production and logistics. It is also intended to provide guidance to the individual designer through which he may recognize, at the earliest practical point in the design effort, those problems of production and support which, if eliminated from the design, will further the objective of creating a design which can be manufactured using readily available materials, in the shortest possible time, at the lowest cost, by the largest possible segment of the industrial base. It therefore provides a collection of pertinent information to aid in designing for ease of production, including the maintenance of required levels of quality.
