Synopsis

Design for manufacturability (DFM), also known as concurrent engineering, represents a holistic approach to product development. The traditional perspective, which viewed the various stages of a product launch as separate functions, has given way to a new philosophy that views materials science, manufacturing processes, product engineering and applications as an integrated system. These proceedings recount the many achievements made by ceramic organizations who have implemented DFM concepts and management teams. Proceedings of the Design for Manufacturability and Manufacture of Ceramic Components symposium, presented at the 96th Annual Meeting of The American Ceramic Society, held in Indianapolis, April 24-27, 1994. Topics Covered: Design for manufacturability: concepts (features seminal papers on the past, present and future of DFM programs) Design for manufacturabilty: applications (case studies delineate the benefits of implementing DFM concepts in glass and structural ceramic manufacturers) Grinding and machining (papers on using a systems approach to a traditional manufacturing function).
