Abstract We consider the design issues of characterizing and appropriately choosing the quality of a product for maximum customer satisfaction and maximum corporate profit. We assume that the basic design configuration of a product is determined and that the designer must select the product quality by imposing statistical tolerances (manufacturing accuracy specifications) and choosing appropriate manufacturing processes. We claim that these design considerations, although often neglected, impact the behavior, cost, and even marketability of the product. A design concept without these specifications is incomplete because i) its feasibility is questionable ii) its cost of production is undetermined iii) its performance is unknown. The design process is seen here as an exploratory activity constrained by the manufacturing systems available. In particular, we provide a decision-analytic methodology to reason about the quality of product and the influences on profit resulting in a specification of manufacturing process and machine accuracy to match customer requests. The method is illustrated by the study of a simple three component assembly.

Design Characteristics

Abstract In multistage manufacturing systems, quality of final products is strongly affected not only by product design characteristics but also by key process design characteristics. However, historically, tolerance research has primarily focused on allocating tolerances based on product design characteristics for each component. Currently, there is no analytical approach for multistage manufacturing processes to optimally allocate tolerances to integrate product and process characteristics at minimum cost. One of the major obstacles is that the relationship between tolerances of process and product characteristics is not well understood and modeled. Under this motivation, this paper aims at presenting a framework addressing the process-oriented (rather than product-oriented) tolerancing technique for multistage manufacturing processes. Based on a developed state space model, tolerances of process design characteristics at each fabrication stage are related to the quality of final product. All key elements in the framework are described and then derived for a multistage assembly process. An industrial case study is used to illustrate the proposed approach.

As the quality of manufactured products as well as the quality of the used manufacturing processes has become more and more important for a company in order to stay competitive in the last decades, an integrated quality management leading towards intelligent manufacturing represents a key factor today. Therefore, new methods are required for considering quality information in all phases of the product life cycle. Feature technology and especially the use of so-called measurement and quality features represent an approach towards integrated quality management and the achievement of process-oriented and global quality control loops. Furthermore, feature technology in general also represents a high potential just within the area of sheet metal forming where it can be used to provide additional information for designing manufacturing processes and constructing tools and devices in manufacturing systems.

Abstract A stringent sampling plan is developed to monitor and improve the quality of 300mm SOI (silicon on insulator) starting wafers procured from the suppliers. The ultimate goal is to obtain the defect free wafers for device fabrication and increase yield and circuit performance of the semiconductor integrated circuits. This paper presents various characterization techniques for QC monitor and examples of the typical defects attributed to wafer manufacturing processes.

Iron is mainly absorbed in the upper small intestine and it is therefore important that iron tablets should not take too long to disintegrate. In the past most physicians were aware that some iron tablets were ineffective because they failed to disintegrate. Since then manufacturing processes have improved, but there is still no published information on the disintegration of iron tablets: indeed, this country still lacks a comprehensive scheme for supervising and checking the quality of drugs.1

Mesin ini digunakan pada proses assembly komponen dengan metode pick and place komponen pada material. Sebagai proses yang penting dalam industri manufaktur, mesin ini memerlukan kalibrasi secara reguler dan tepat yang akan menjadi kunci sukses dari kualitas suatu produksi. Penelitian ini bertujuan membuat suatu purwarupa alat yang digunakan sebagai pengontrol kalibrasi dengan menggunakan laser sensor. Proses kalibrasi dilakukan dengan cara mengukur kerataan titip sisi work holder menggunakan laser sensor. Kerataan didapatkan dengan membandingkan jarak yang terukur oleh laser sensor pada tiap titik uji. Jarak yang sama pada tiap titik uji menunjukkan kerataan dari work holder. Pergerakan laser sensor dikontrol oleh dua buah motor yang bergerak ke arah sumbu X dan Y. Alat ini telah diuji dengan mengkalibrasi pada empat sisi work holder. Hasil pengujian kemudian dibandingkan dengan pengukuran manual dan didapatkan error rata-rata pengukuran sekitar 4%.Kata kunci: Laser sensor, kerataan, kalibrasi, die attach machine ABSTRACTOne of the element technology supporting an industrial manufacturing is Die Attach machine. This machine is used at component assembly using component pick and place. As an important process, this machine requires regular and precise calibration to support quality of the product. This research aims to build a prototype system using laser sensor which can be used as calibration instrument. The callibration proses was done by measuring the flatness of each side of work holder using laser sensor. The flatness was obtained by comparing the distance of each testing point. The same distance on each testing point represented the flatness of the wrok holder. The movement of laser sensor was controlled by two motors which moved to X and Y axis. The system has been tested to calibrate each side of work holder. The experimental results were then compare with manual measurement and showed the measurement error about 4%.Keywords: Laser sensor, flatness, callibration, die attach machine.

Machining processes through cutting are accompanied by dynamic phenomena that influence the quality of the processed surfaces. Thus, this research aimed to design, make, and use a tool with optimal functional geometry, which allowed a reduction of the dynamic phenomena that occur in the cutting process. In order to carry out the research, the process of cutting by front turning with transversal advance was taken into account. Additionally, semi-finished products with a diameter of Ø = 150 mm made of C45 steel were chosen for processing (1.0503). The manufacturing processes were performed with the help of two tools: a cutting tool, the classic construction version, and another that was the improved construction version. In the first stage of the research, an analysis was made of the vibrations that appear in the cutting process when using the two types of tools. Vibration analysis considered the following: use of the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) method, application of the Short-Time Fourier-Transformation (STFT) method, and observation of the acceleration of vibrations recorded during processing. After the vibration analysis, the roughness of the surfaces was measured and the parameter Ra was taken into account, but a series of diagrams were also drawn regarding the curved profiles, filtered profiles, and Abbott–Firestone curve. The research showed that use of the tool that is the improved constructive variant allows accentuated reduction of vibrations correlated with an improvement of the quality of the processed surfaces.
