Cost reduction study of bicycle by using DFA methods
Design for Assembly (DFA) is a tool for simplifying product design which enables to provide a good design to be easily manufactured and assembled. The objectives of this study are to evaluate and improve the design efficiency of a selected bicycle. The study was carried out through few processes whi...
