Abstract :
The assembly process constitutes an important influencing parameter of product development. Therefore, a product architecture has to be designed taking constraints and requirements deriving from the manufacturing and the assembly process into consideration. This paper introduces a systematic approach to optimize product architecture from the assembly process point of view by enhancing modular design.
