Concurrent Engineering
Use of teams in design and engineering activities.
Continuing product-development involvement and
responsibility from original concept thru sales.
Implies that all product or service development is
done concurrently through a comprehensive,
systematic approach.
Vs. Traditional: Serial Approach
CE Approach: teams attack all aspects of product or
service development simultaneously.
Most important concept of CE is that quality is
considered from the start of the design.
Traditional Process
Concurrent Engineering
The simultaneous performance of product design and
process design. Typically, concurrent engineering
involves the formation of cross-functional teams.
This allows engineers and managers of different
disciplines to work together simultaneously in
developing product and process design.

Concurrent Engineering
Concurrent engineering methodologies permit the
separate tasks of the product development process to
be carried out simultaneously rather than
sequentially.
Product design, testing, manufacturing and process
planning through logistics, for example, are done
side-by-side and interactively. Potential problems in
fabrication, assembly, support and quality are
identified and resolved early in the design process.

FMS/ FMC
Flexible Manufacturing Systems
designed to produce a family of similar parts.

Poka-yoke
Literally means mistake-proofing, making fail-safe.
Fool-proof devices
This consists of applying simple, low-cost mechanical and
electrical devices to help prevent human error in a process.
An approach for mistake-proofing processes using automatic
devices or methods to avoid simple human error.
Developed and refined by Shigeo Shingo, a Japanese
manufacturing engineer who developed the Toyota
Production System.
Focused on 2 aspects: prediction and detection.

MMC/SD/SIM cards can only be inserted the right
way
Microwave ovens shut off automatically when door
is opened
Some coffeemakers shuts off drip when the
coffeepot is removed
Grocery carts does not roll down when moving up
Automatic doors have sensors that prevents door
from closing when there is a blockage
Check Lists:
Commonly confused with check sheets
Do not solve problems
Used as reminders of what to do & what not to do.
Example: Check List by Pilots before flying a plane.

Treadmills have a clip that attaches to the runner and
shuts down machine off if runner falls
At some restaurants, the trash can opening is too
small to block trays from being accidentally
discarded
Automatic transmission cars wont start unless in
Park or Neutral Mode
New cars (manual transmission) wont start without
first pressing on the clutch pedal
CPM-PERT
Critical Path Method-Program Evaluation & Review
Technique.
Special Type of Flowchart
Events, activity, & activity times are used.
Path requires the shortest length of time, Critical Path.
Total length of time for that path is the Critical Time.
Method to get from one event to another.

Gantt Chart
a type of bar chart, first developed by Karol Adamiecki in
1896, and independently by Henry Gantt in the 1910s, that
illustrates a project schedule.
Used to evaluate recommendations and show the sequence of
tasks needed to be accomplished in an established time frame.

Computer-driven Technologies
Computer-Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) a system and
philosophy of management in which all information data
about all manufacturing functions are computer-integrated.
Computer-Aided Design (CAD)
Computer-Aided Drafting and Design (CADD)
Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM) utilized the
computer to plan and control the manufacturing process.
Computer-Aided Engineering a continuation of CAD. Most
CAD software has some engineering capabilities as well, like
simulation and 3D graphics.
Computer Numerical Control (CNC) allows the computer
to control several Numerical Control (NC) equipment or
machines
Other Methodologies:
Surveys - used to obtain relevant information from
sources that otherwise would not be heard from in the
context of providing helpful data.
Failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) -tries to
identify all possible product or process failures and
prioritize them for elimination according to their risk.
Design of experiments (DOE) - a sophisticated method
for experimenting with complex processes for the
purpose of optimizing them.
