Abstract:
Intense competition in the global market for mechanical parts has compelled manufactures to reduce delivery times and quote competitive prices for meeting today’s customers expectation like superior quality, higher capabilities and superior performance.
Concurrent or simultaneous engineering is a methodology of restructuring the product development activity in an organization using a cross functional team and is a technique adopted to improve the efficiency of product design and reduce the product design cycle time.
Define & Explain CONCURRENT ENGINEERING :
With the latest development due to globalization, business unit may have the capacity to deal with the increasing competition. This is possible only by drastic organizational productivity improvement. One of the tools to achieve the organizational productivity improvement is called Concurrent Engineering. If there is a delay of three months in bringing a product to the market, it would cause an enormous loss to the organization by way of reduced market share.
A systematic approach to the integrated, concurrent design of products and to their related implementation, including operational aspects, whereby designers/ developers process simultaneously and since go ahead, all requirements of the product life cycle, from concept through delivery, including quality, cost, schedule and user requirements.
TRADITIONAL ENGINEERING VS. CONCURRENT ENGINEERING
In traditional engineering a relatively short time is spent defining the product. A relatively long time is spent designing the product and a surprisingly long time is often spent redesigning the product. The key to shortening the overall design time is to better the product and better document the design process.
Traditionally, the development of a product had been seen as a cycle of plan...do...check...act...(adjust). Concurrent engineering is a process in which appropriate disciplines are committed to work interactively to conceive, approve, develop, and implement product programs that meet pre-determined objectives define .
