Abstract
Product design is still commonly component rather than assembly oriented. Industry requirements have inspired a more holistic approach which is presented here. In this, proactive DFA is used in a process centred around assembly sequence construction. Early analysis and evaluation is enabled by geometric reasoning and expert system tools. Details of underlying principles and implementation are given together with a case study illustrating the benefits of the approach
