Abstract:
This paper presents an integrative approach to the design for assembly (DfA) methodologies, adapting these to the particularities of the elevation industry. A friendly design tool in form of software has been developed implementing the proposed approach and methodology. A study case for an elevator counterweight design has been presented to show and test the advantages of the new approach and developed tool. Improvements of approximately 7.9 percentage points in the assembly effort of the elevator counterweight have been obtained following the proposed approach.
