Description
Summary:The purpose of this paper is to present a new DFMA software that is created in Bahasa Melayu. The software was developed to assist in teaching the subject Design for Manufacture and Assembly for undergraduate students. The software is created using Visual Basic and MySQL. The software is based on Boothroyd Dewhurst DFMA methodology. Currently, teaching this subject uses manual procedure which is time consuming but it helps to strengthen the foundation of Boothroyd Dewhurst method. The software saves up to 97% of the time needed for manual procedure. This software is developed in Bahasa Melayu to differentiate it from the official Boothroyd Dewhurst software and any other software related. Even though the contents are in Malay, there are also English translation as most terms are familiar in English. Since the university had yet to obtain Boothroyd Dewhurst software, the author refer its content with the promo version of the original Boothroyd Dewhurst software that was supplied by vendors.
