Abstract

One of the problems in manufacturing products is the lack of proper communication between product design and manufacturing. If this relationship is not established well between design and product, it always leads to problems in product manufacturing. The issue of obtaining tools to make manufacturing product better, faster, and cheaper has created an intense competition between companies. Excessive long design time of a product will prolong the product development cycle. Moreover, the designers cannot examine the products separately, nor can they spend a lot of time on a manufacturing engineer's engineering idea to find the ways of manufacturing products. An appropriate and strong coherence should be established between human resources, tools, methods, design resources, engineering and manufacturing in a product production process desirable to the customer, designer and manufacturer. Design theories for manufacturing and design for assembling are two very powerful tools for cherishing creativity and innovation, sharing technical knowledge in processes, and reducing design, engineering, and manufacturing loops. Thus, making companies knowledge-based can help manufacturing and complexity of product design. The paper tried to develop products using product design techniques.
