considered negligible.

Perform DFA and DFM analysis for the base case model. Screws$/$Bolts$/$fasteners are

operations and not considered as components.

The management is requesting for minimum process operations, ease of assembly,

disassembly, lightweight and lower costs for both manufacturing and assembly.

Propose three redesigns. Perform DFA and DFM analysis for all redesigned models.

Compare results based on number of components, assembly and manufacturing times,

assembly and manufacturing costs, number of operations, and other measured variables and

select the best$-$redesigned model.

Write a comprehensive report. All assumptions made must be clearly defined. All design

and redesign CAD files should be uploaded with the final report.
