Abstract

A review of the literature and of several cases of modernization in domestic plants reveals the significance of the challenge of integrating design and manufacturing. Teams, compatible computer-aided-design (CAD) systems, common reporting positions, design for manufacture (DFM) programs, and engineering generalists emerge as the primary mechanisms being used to coordinate the design process when more than one function is involved. Management needs greater involvement of engineers in design-manufacturing integration.
